Superyacht Galapagos

Superyacht Galapagos established the first legal and operational framework to welcome private superyachts to the Galápagos Islands when founding operations in 1998. The agency pioneered the formal protocols and administrative pathways necessary to manage large private arrivals within one of the most strictly regulated marine ecosystems in the world.

Over decades of direct involvement, the organization helped design the region’s core maritime management systems, contributing to modern permitting processes, biosecurity inspection routines, fee structures, custom itineraries, certified guide placement, and environmental operational standards.

This foundational involvement grants the team unmatched regional knowledge and direct working relationships with local environmental and marine authorities. By delivering personalized shore support, comprehensive regulatory management, and on-the-ground agency services, Superyacht Galapagos continues to guide captains and owners through seamless, fully compliant visits to the archipelago.
