In the last 12 years, we have arranged yacht cruising permits into the protected waters of the Galapagos National Park for hundreds of yachts visiting with yacht owners and their guests.

Seas Master directors operate under standardized practices with similar backgrounds in three countries across the Eastern Tropical Pacific Islands. We are real experts about each of our locations. Additionally, we are members of SEAL SUPER YACHTS and members for the selective Network of Super Yacht Agencies AYSS, all AYSS members follow a Code of Ethics and Conduct.
Being based in the Galapagos Islands, our team has handled service and support for hundreds of yachts. With over 12 years of direct, local experience, SEA MASTERS has an unrivaled knowledge of the local regulations in addition to maintaining an excellent relationship with local authorities and the local community.
When you are our client, we will spend any time necessary time behind the scenes in order to ensure a flawless cruise.

SEA MASTERS in the Galapagos has obtained the most complex yacht cruising permits, and has accomplished logistical challenges never done by other agencies in the Galapagos.
We have organized and coordinated 15 helicopter yacht operations and 7 submarine operations for science research vessels, media expeditions and conservation projects in benefit of the Galapagos National Park and the science community of the Galapagos. No other Agency in The Galapagos has ever done so much for our park and scientists as SEA MASTERS in the Galapagos has done
In 2014, SEA MASTERS became the legal local Galapagos representatives for National Geographic’s vessel and series ¨PRISTINE SEAS¨ This series was based on Dr. Enric Sala’s scientific research, and the complex logistical needs for the expedition was wholly undertaken by SEAS MASTER in the Galapagos. This unique Galapagos documentary triggered political change in Ecuador and influenced the president of Ecuador to sign in 2016 the historical decree to declare WOLF & DARWIN islands as a MARINE SANCTUARY and NO TAKE zone . SEA MASTERS is proud to be integral part of the history of conservation of the Galapagos.
In addition to supporting the Conservation of the Galapagos, we are proud to be a key player in the long-term Sustainable Development of local Galapagos communities.

Testimonials and recommendations
Now that the Galapagos is far on the horizon I just wanted to send you and Conchita a very big thank you for all you help, advise and kind service you offered the Owners & Crew during our stay. The trip was a complete success, thanks mainly in part to your thorough pre-planning and constant daily contact to ensure everything went according to plan.
Even when we had to make a few last minute changes it was done effortlessly! You should be very proud of your company and I would recommend you without hesitation should I be asked to recommend an agent in the Galapagos.
From the Owner, Crew & myself again I thank-you.
Capt. Jeff Dunn
Thank you for your professional assistance – it really have been a pleasure working with you all and I will not hesitate to recommend your services to my colleague captains who wants to know more about Costa Rica and Galapagos!
All the very best for now and hope to see you all again!
Capt. Lui Anphin
Thanks to you and Inrry for your assistance during our numerous ports of call while in Galapagos.
All arrangements were done perfectly good and in due time. We are very happy with your service.
We made lots of new discoveries around your unique islands.
If plans are to visit again, we will definitely use your Company to be our Agents again in Galapagos.
Capt. Pavel Chubar
Antonio Moreano of SEA MASTERS GALAPAGOS made it all happen with a big giant smile of his face every day and he also treated us crew so well, like VIP guests of his while we were preparing for our trip with the Boss. It was a great experience with and without the guests. In the end I saw more than one opportunity for some heavy billing and he always just charged what was fair. Antonio is an ex-live a board dive master, he has loads of time out in the park doing what we do and no-a-days he knows what yacht owners needs are like. The Boss did go everywhere I wanted as Antonio “worked” the park system for our benefit, and we made sure the park benefitted as well.
Capt. Ethan H. Lee
First trip Galapagos
14 days, 10 guest , 15 security, 2 local dive vessels
Antonio absolutely stared in keeping everything on track organizing everything and not one thing went wrong. Which was quite a feat with that many issues going on, people coming and going and heavy diving.
Second Trip Coco Island
1 week, 8 guest, 15 security, 1 local dive vessel. Antonio again just kept the whole show rolling and keeping the dive boat and submarine on their toes Was also dive guide and Tour guide on Coco again absolute perfect trip
Again absolutely excellent service with Tours all over the place, and if there is no water taxis at 3 am just call him on the radio he get it organized, If it is possible to get on the Islands Antonio can get it. Honesty is a absolute with Antonio, he will not do the shady deals that other agents do.
Capt. Jorgen Gormsen
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you on behalf of myself, the crew, and the owner of MY Valkyrie for the flawless service that you provided for us as our “Ships Agent” during our visit to the Galapagos Islands in February and March of 2010.I can not thank you enough for the effort that you put in to ensure that our time spent there with you was as trouble free and as well organized as possible. Everything was done with the utmost professionalism and promptness which with a demanding and changeable itinerary such as ours was not always easy. I am 100% satisfied with your services Antonio and will be recommending you as the agent to go to in the Galapagos Islands. I look forward to our next meeting, the beers on me!
Capt. Martin Debanks
Antonio, I have been meaning to write to you to say a VERY BIG THANK YOU for such an amazing trip to the Galapagos. I feel guilty that we could not spend more time with you without owners & guests…..
