About Aqua Mare

With her expansive size and world-class pedigree, Aqua Mare boasts 30 percent more indoor volume than most yachts her size, making her the perfect respite after active days exploring the remote wildlife and dynamic nature of the Archipelago. Aboard the Italian CRN Yacht-built Aqua Mare, guests will find seven large Zuretti-designed cabins – including an 80 sqm Owner’s Suite – extravagant indoor and outdoor social spaces, elegant finishing, and immaculate attention to detail, making it the first of its kind in the region. Enjoy this ultimate retreat of the archipelago’s dramatic volcanic landscapes accompanied by a specially curated menu by award-winning Pedro Miguel Schiaffino using only the freshest local ingredients. Exclusivity is combined with the most personalized service enabled by two naturalist guides for 16 guests, on top of the islands’ most exclusive one-to-one crew to guest ratio. Designed and built in 1998, the 50-meter superyacht retains original custom interiors even after the 2021 refurbishment led by Aqua Expeditions Director Birgit Galli Zugaro that saw the addition of two new cabins. A personalized interior makeover that complements the rich history of its destination, Aqua Mare is ready to be enjoyed in all her sophisticated and contemporary glory. Perfected with soft carpeting and luxuriously paneled walls in walnut veneer throughout the entire vessel, sumptuous textiles, personally selected objet d’arts, and premium fittings, accommodation aboard Aqua Mare is befitting of royalty. Aqua Mare also stands out for her grand yet effortless sophistication, impressive large interior spaces, panoramic sundeck, and the lower deck multi-purpose ‘Beach Club’. Accommodating a total of 16 guests, Aqua Mare features seven individually designed cabins including an 861 sqft Owner’s Suite – the largest of its kind in the archipelago. After days of enlightening excursions, guests return to a luxurious sanctuary to relax and unwind. Conceptualized by Italian megayacht designers Costruzioni e Riparazioni Navali (CRN) and outfitted by custom yacht interior designer extraordinaire François Zuretti, the cabins feature curated prints from the Wallace and Darwin era of exploration, alluding to the Galapagos Islands’ dramatic volcanic landscapes.
