The sleek, contemporary M/C Athala II is a luxury motor catamaran specifically designed for cruising the Galapagos Islands in style and stable comfort. Offering an intimate, small-yacht atmosphere, the 98-foot Athala II accommodates a maximum of just 16 guests in eight spacious, air-conditioned double staterooms appointed with elegant polished wood decor. The four main-deck staterooms (Category 2) have private balconies, and four additional staterooms without balconies are located on the upper deck (Category 1). All have large picture windows, en-suite bathrooms and offer either queen or two twin bed configurations. The upper deck features a bar and shaded area for relaxation and al fresco dining. The expansive space allows plenty of room for whale and dolphin watching, sunbathing, or relaxing in the Jacuzzi. At night, there’s no better place for stargazing. The dining area is located on the main deck, along with a comfortable lounge. All meals are served buffet-style with all non-alcoholic beverages included.
Together, Natural Habitat Adventures and World Wildlife Fund have teamed up to arrange nearly 100 nature travel experiences around the planet, while helping to protect the magnificent places we visit and their wild inhabitants.
