ALTA YACHT
»» Galapagos Ecuador ««
| The Alta sailing yacht is one of the most beautiful yachts cruising in the Galapagos Islands and is ideal for those travelers seeking exclusivity. Alta is a three masted Staysail Schooner, 46 m / 140 ft long and capable of 10 knots under power and 14 knots under sail. Alta is fitted with 8 tastefully decorated cabins that accommodate up to 16 passengers. All cabins have ample hanging locker and drawer space. Each cabin has its own private facilities with fresh, hot and cold water showers.
The main salon is very elegant and inviting. A curving banquet and coffee table stand opposite a cabinet holding the TV/Video system. At mealtimes, there are two alternatives: inside, in the dining salon, which seats sixteen in four tables, or "al fresco", on the foredeck. The gourmet galley is equipped to prepare the finest dishes.
Motor Sailor Alta offers many spots for relaxing including a sundeck with lounge chairs just forward of the bridge, and another with cushions on the bow of the yacht. When the conditions are appropriate, the sails are hoisted making Alta the most beautiful yacht in the Galapagos. Full crew with a naturalist level III guide.
