Celebrity Flora® is the first all-suites mega yacht designed for exploring the Galapagos Islands, and it’s the first ship there to receive a Four-Star Rating from Forbes Travel Guide. The Galapagos Islands influenced every decision that went into Celebrity Flora, from an outward-facing design that surrounds you in breathtaking views to locally sourced materials that weave the islands right into the ship itself. The suites ensure your stay in this unspoiled archipelago will be anything but rugged. Even the tenders are custom designed to make your journey more seamless than ever.

As sustainable as it is stunning, Celebrity Flora uses a dynamic positioning system that protects the seabed by allowing the ship to stay on station without anchors. Reverse osmosis turns sea water into all the fresh water we need. Flora’s also the first ship of its size to have solar panels, which supplement the electric supply and reduce emissions. And non-toxic silicone paint helps the hull glide more smoothly through the water with less fuel. Celebrity Flora is a ship that maximizes your Galapagos experience while minimizing our footprint. You’ll never want to Galapagos any other way.
