Corvina Ceviche from Ecoventura Cruises

Ecoventura cruises the Galapagos Islands. Culinary school-trained chefs of Ecoventura have introduced a reduced calorie, healthy dining menu, built around natural and organic foods purchased locally from island farmers.

Santiago Dunn, owner, commented, “In general, our yachts tend to attract a more active and health-conscious clientele who are also concerned about environmental issues. We make it our mission to cater to our clients with more varied activities on the Islands, taking full advantage of snorkeling, longer interpretive hikes, kayaking, even scuba diving.”

“We have specifically tweaked our menus to avoid fried foods and high calorie sauces, while reducing the fat and sodium content that may be popular with locals but not with our guests.”
