How to get there

Grace departs from either Baltra or San Cristóbal, depending on your itinerary. After your flight from mainland Ecuador, you’ll be met by the crew and transferred to the yacht for embarkation.

Are children welcome?

Yes. Grace welcomes children aged six and above on scheduled departures and is an excellent choice for families or private charters thanks to her intimate size and flexible accommodation.

Giving back

Grace operates under the strict environmental regulations of the Galápagos National Park, with a strong commitment to protecting the archipelago’s unique wildlife and ecosystems. Onboard initiatives include reducing single-use plastics, comprehensive recycling and responsible waste management, while supporting local suppliers and communities wherever possible.

Beyond day-to-day operations, the company supports a number of long-term conservation projects across the islands. These include partnerships with the Charles Darwin Foundation and Galápagos Conservancy, funding for the Galápagos Whale Shark Project, habitat restoration initiatives and environmental education programmes. It also supports the Galápagos Scouts Programme, helping inspire the next generation of local conservationists, while investing in projects such as biodigesters and organic gardens at the Galápagos National College.

By travelling aboard Grace, you are directly contributing to the long-term protection of one of the world’s most extraordinary natural environments while supporting the communities that call these islands home.

Why we love Grace

Quite simply, there is nothing else like her in the Galápagos. Knowing you’re sailing aboard the former yacht of Princess Grace Kelly gives every voyage a sense of occasion. Grace feels effortlessly elegant rather than ostentatious, a yacht with genuine stories to tell, both past and present.
