2 spots open - Galapagos Islands – June 11-18, 2012
Humboldt Explorer Live-Aboard

There are 2 spots available. My husband and I signed up through our local dive shop (The Scuba Connection in Hillsborough, NJ) and are now unable to go on this trip. Please contact me at jhjones1223@yahoo.com if you are interested in visiting the Galapagos Islands for some amazing diving. Details about the trip are below.

Priced at - $4295 pp

We have so far made 2 payments of $1000 each pp for the trip and the balance is due in 2 additional payments over the next several months (I believe in January and March of 2012). Ideally, we would like to transfer our spots on the trip to two other divers with a deposit of $2000 pp (what we paid so far).

The Humboldt Explorer is a new vessel, which began construction in August 2009 and will provide guests with exceptional amenities. All cabins are air-conditioned and have private bath and showers, an ocean view, flat screen televisions and can be arranged to provide 2 twin beds or one large bed depending on guest needs.
A partially covered sundeck with jacuzzi and ample seating areas, a salon including a lounge area, a spacious dive deck with a large camera table are just some of the features.The Humboldt Explorer was designed by one of the premier marine architects in Ecuador, and is the first of her kind. She is a 106 foot, 2 level steel monohull vessel, built for stability on the long crossings to Darwin and Wolf, and features raised lower staterooms to allow a window in every room.
