There’s simply no more wondrous way to experience this primeval paradise than from the seat of a kayak, in the intimate company of a small group of like-minded adventurers. When you come to Galapagos with Explorers’ Corner, you leave the big tour boats behind. We meet marine life up close and personal as we meander along serrated shorelines and paddle into secret coves. Our sleek sailing catamaran, the S/V Nemo II, is our base for our week in the islands, whisking us between anchorages and providing comfortable accommodations when we’re not kayaking or snorkeling or hiking ashore. The Nemo II carries just 12 guests in six teak-outfitted cabins, with spacious lounge areas inside and out.
