Happy First Birthday to a Ship of Firsts

June 30th marks one year since Celebrity FloraSM set sail on its inaugural journey to the Galapagos Islands. The first eco-friendly ship of its size was specifically designed for the Galapagos Islands, and is the first ship to bring luxurious all-suites accommodations to the region. The list of firsts for Flora doesn’t end there.

More Firsts for Flora

First ship in the Galapagos to feature an innovative outward-facing design

First ship in the Galapagos to introduce our transformational Infinite Verandas®

First ship in the Galapagos to offer custom Novurania tenders for seamless exploring
First ship in the islands where you can go Galapagos Glamping
First ship in the Galapagos to boast an eye-opening space like The Lab
First ship in the Galapagos with solar panels to reduce our footprint—just one of the reasons Flora is the most eco-friendly ship to sail in these islands.

Celebrity Flora gave us the opportunity to introduce our first godmother in the Galapagos Islands. With our passionate focus on environmentalism in the Galapagos Islands, our choice was an easy one to make—Yolanda Kakabadse. She’s a prominent environmental leader and a champion of sustainable development and biodiversity preservation. Yolanda is a former Minister of Environment for the Republic of Ecuador and a former president of both the International Union for Conservation of Nature and World Wildlife Fund International. She has dedicated her career to leaving the world a better place, which is exactly why she’s the perfect fit.
