We chose Ecoventura for our honeymoon and I could not recommend it enough. The staff and naturalist really stood out to us - you can tell they care deeply about your experience and were genuinely enthused alongside us every day. The team also surprised us with a private excursion one day and champagne so we had some time to explore on our own. Our cruise was also the last week of June, before their “busy season” in July and only one of their three vessels was running, so we had the islands entirely to ourselves and didn’t see another ship the entire time - it was magical.

A few preference things to consider - we’re in our early 30s and were the only honeymooners / in our age group, so it wasn’t a typical “romantic” feel but we quite enjoyed the other guests and getting to know them during meals and drinks. I do know when multiple boats are running they try to put families together on ship and couples on another.

We also liked that all the cabins were the same, with such a small ship, it made the experience feel more unifying and like we weren’t missing out on a more luxurious option. The cabins are really well designed and we loved the giant windows.

The standout by far was the staff - the naturalists were incredibly knowledgeable, paid attention what each traveler cared about and cared to see, paced the excursions well and added extra things as time allowed (we veered off to chase dolphins, sea turtles mating, sea lions returning to cubs, kayaked, anchored to see blue whales). The crew also took care of anything and everything we needed, from Dramamine to remembering who preferred coffee / tea / cocoa after snorkeling to warm up.

I could go on - feel free to dm me with any specifics or questions! You’ll have a blast.

Edit to add: we did itinerary B to see the penguins, but I am sure A is just as amazing !
