Location Details: Galapagos is a group of volcanic islands in the Eastern Pacific. The archipelago is a province of the Republic of Ecuador and due to their location the only way to reach the Islands is by air. The distance from Ecuador to Galapagos is approximately 1,000 km (600 miles).
Galapagos consists of 127 islands, islets, and rocks, a number that continuously evolves due to volcanic activity, which creates new lava fields, islets, and even expands existing islands. In this map of Ecuador and Galapagos islands you will be able to see the isolated location of the archipelago.
Unveil a group of remote volcanic islands in the Eastern Pacific, constantly reshaped by ongoing geological activity.

Green Other: Endangered sharks: Track a Shark, Protect a Species: with each cruise booking a shark is tracked for a full year, directly helping with this program’s research and conservation goals. Plastic Plution: 8 Pounds Cleaner: Each guest helps remove 8 pounds of plastic waste from Galapagos beaches with this project's take on cleanup, education and global impact. Saving giant tortpoises:Galapagos tortoises face ongoing threats which are direct consequences of human actions. To help preserve this emblematic archipelago giant, this project focuses on nest protection and specimens monitoring throughout their life. Another aspect is the local community collaboration in creating safe pathways and participating in environmental education campaigns. Adopting Galapagos Animals: Our dedication to this project goes beyond mere involvement; we actively engage by turning our vessels into 'adoptive parents' for emblematic Galapagos species. Additionally, we grant adoption certificates and adorable stuffed animals to our guests and clients on special occasions. This initiative allows “adopters” to fund efforts while staying updated on conservation progress. To learn more about this program and to adopt your own Galapagos animal,

Questions & Answers

How does the charter contract work?

The contract is signed directly between the Owner and the Charterer, with the support of the broker. It is usually based on the international MYBA contract model, designed to ensure clear and balanced protection for both parties.
There is also the figure of the Stakeholder, responsible for safely holding the funds until the end of the charter.

What is included in the charter fee?

The base rate includes the rental of the yacht, the use of all onboard equipment, the presence of the crew, and the related insurance coverage.
Operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, beverages, and additional activities are not included and are managed through the APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance).

The exact list of what is included or excluded will be confirmed when selecting the yacht.

What is the APA and how does it work?

The APA (Advance Provisioning Allowance) is an advance fund, usually equal to 25–35% of the charter fee, allocated to cover operational expenses such as fuel, provisioning, marina fees, paid activities, beverages, and the guests’ personalized requests.

At the end of the cruise, the Captain provides a detailed breakdown of all expenditures. Any unused amount is refunded to the client, while any overages are settled directly upon closing the charter.

What are the payment terms?

Upon signing the contract, a payment of 50% of the total amount is required.
The balance — including APA, taxes, and any additional charges — is typically due around five weeks before embarkation (depending on the owner).
Payments are made via bank transfer, which is the standard method in the luxury charter industry.

Can I cancel a booking?

Yes, cancellations are possible, but the contractual terms apply.
In general, if the client decides to withdraw, the Owner retains the deposits already paid.

If the yacht is rebooked for the same period, the Owner refunds the amount recovered, minus the applicable commissions.

Every cancellation request is handled with full transparency.
Further details on the applicable policies are available upon direct request.

How can I choose the yacht that best suits my needs?

The choice depends primarily on the type of experience you wish to enjoy:

Motor yacht for maximum comfort, excellent stability, and fast transfers.
Sailing yacht for an authentic, quiet experience rooted in traditional navigation.
Catamaran for generous spaces, superior stability, and enhanced privacy.

BeBlue evaluates the destination, number of guests, personal preferences, and budget to select the most suitable option for you.

How far in advance should I book?

For peak season (Mediterranean: June–September; Caribbean: December–April), it is advisable to book several months in advance to secure the best available options.
We can also handle last-minute requests, depending on availability and licensing requirements.

Is it possible to personalise menus, preferences, and activities?

Absolutely. Before departure, you will receive a Preference Sheet where you can indicate your tastes, dietary needs, allergies, beverage preferences, and the activities you wish to enjoy.
The Chef and the Captain will use this information to create a fully customised experience for you.

How many guests can be accommodated on board?

Most yachts can host 6 to 12 guests, depending on their interior layout.
Some superyachts over 80 metres, compliant with international certifications, can accommodate up to 36 guests.

Will I have Internet access during the charter?

Most yachts offer Wi-Fi on board, provided through mobile networks or satellite systems. The quality and speed of the connection may vary depending on the cruising area and the technology installed.

Is tipping the crew expected?

Tipping is not mandatory, but it is a well-established custom to show appreciation for the crew’s service.
International guidelines suggest an amount equal to 10–15% of the base charter fee as a reference.
