Golden Galapagos by Golden Experiences & Travel (GET) has announced the arrival of two new catamarans: M/C Grand Ocean Spray, scheduled to begin operations in October 2026, and M/C Galapagos Eminence, set to launch in April 2027.

Introducing the Signature Luxury Collection

With M/C Grand Ocean Spray and M/C Galapagos Eminence, Golden Galapagos is introducing its Signature Luxury Collection—a new class of ultimate-generation catamarans conceived for a capacity of 16 guests and defined by high space-per-guest ratios, refined private accommodations, wellness-focused onboard facilities, and unprecedented technology.

M/C Grand Ocean Spray

The first vessel to join the Signature Luxury Collection, M/C Grand Ocean Spray, will set sail on her maiden voyage in October 2026.

The ultimate-generation catamaran features 8 Golden Suites across two decks and 1 single cabin, all with panoramic ocean-view doors and private balconies.

Onboard spaces include al fresco dining on the Sky Deck, open terraces, a premium whirlpool, and a panoramic spa with ocean views. Built with a sleek twin-hull structure for stable navigation, the vessel also incorporates embedded solar panels and lithium battery systems to support more efficient energy use. Her onboard team includes a Cruise Hospitality Officer, a top naturalist guide, and crew members dedicated to delivering bespoke hospitality.

M/C Galapagos Eminence

Arriving in April 2027, M/C Galapagos Eminence will take the Signature Luxury Collection further with an unprecedented focus on space, wellness, and operational innovation.

The vessel features 9 suites with private terraces: 2 Lofts with private jacuzzis, 2 Panorama Suites with 90-degree views and private jacuzzis, and 5 Golden Suites. Onboard facilities include an al fresco bar and dining area, spa, infrared sauna, gym, exterior jacuzzi for 8 to 10 guests, and an elevator connecting the Main Deck to the Sky Deck.

Advanced sustainable systems include smart water flow monitors in each suite, jacuzzi water filtering and reuse, solar-supported mechanisms, and treatment solutions for black, grey, and oily water. For departures with 12 guests or more, the vessel will operate with 2 naturalist guides, while an internal garage for zodiacs and kayaks will facilitate expedition experiences.
