Galapagos Sailing Yacht Alta is one of the most beautiful yachts in the Galapagos; she is ideal for travelers who seek exclusivity and uniqueness. Alta  is a Three Masted Staysail Schooner, a very stylish yacht that has that special charm of a sailing ship. She is 46 m / 140 ft long and capable of 10 knots under power and 14 knots under sail.

Galapagos Sailing Yacht 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 their 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.

Galapagos Sailing Yacht Alta  offers many spots for relaxing or sunning, 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 will be hoisted and she will become the most beautiful yacht in the Galapagos.
