Galapagos Island Tours & Travel | ESTRELLA DEL MAR I

Estrella Del Mar Built in 1990, the Estrella del Mar is pure style. She boasts eight air-conditioned cabins each with upper and lower berths and private baths. Her comfortable lounge and dining room are spaciously designed to provide you with a relaxing, enjoyable Galapagos Island cruise experience. The Estrella de Mar's sun decks provide wonderful open and shaded spaces to breathe in the sea-salt air and bask in the equatorial sun. This is a great yacht for comfort, style, and affordability.
