Eight days aboard Aqua, with three full days at Darwin and Wolf and a scientist in the water with you.

A Galápagos Whale Shark Project scientist sails on every Shark Conservation Expedition departure. Guests photograph whale sharks for identification and take part in standardised SharkCount surveys. Whether a given dive produces a usable record depends on the animals and the images; the scientist aboard confirms what was contributed, and that is what appears in your Research Passport afterwards.
Wildlife is wild. Whale sharks and hammerheads are commonly seen at Darwin and Wolf in season, but no sighting is ever guaranteed on any departure.
Real dates, real prices per person and live availability. Sold-out departures take a waitlist, handled personally by the team.
Your answers above travel with the message, so nobody asks you to repeat them. Solo travellers: cabin arrangements are confirmed personally, never assumed.
Deposit & balance: a 30% deposit secures your spot; the remaining balance is due 120 days before departure — the same terms for every expedition line. Full cancellation and refund terms.
