About this trip

Join underwater photographer and author Nigel Marsh on a once-in-a-lifetime photography tour of the Galápagos Islands.

Why This Trip Will Amaze You: The Master the Galápagos seven-night liveaboard itinerary visits many of the archipelago’s most spectacular dive sites, including the world-famous Wolf and Darwin Islands. This remote volcanic chain’s isolation and protected status have created one of the planet’s richest marine environments, where encounters with remarkable wildlife are part of every dive.

Why You’ll Love This Trip: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ecuadorian National Park and marine reserve, the Galápagos are a living showcase of evolution. Their isolation has allowed countless species to develop uniquely, resulting in extraordinary biodiversity both above and below the surface. Divers may encounter silky and Galápagos sharks, schools of hammerheads, the occasional whale shark, playful sea lions, eagle rays, and marine iguanas — along with an astounding variety of reef fish. The diversity and abundance of life here are simply unmatched.

Why This Trip Stands Out: Your tour leader Nigel will be on hand throughout the voyage to share his expertise. With daily tips, feedback sessions and photo presentations, you’ll have every opportunity to enhance your underwater photography skills while exploring one of the world’s most extraordinary dive destinations.
