Vessel Type: Small Ship Passenger Capacity: 16 Built: 2005 Built in 2005 and regularly refurbished, the 16 passenger Monserrat is locally owned and operated. It’s the ship we use for our 11 day natural history tours.  We consider it as among the highest end “tourist superior” ships out there, for its relative spaciousness (designed for 20 guests, but carrying only 16) and comfortable cabins.  This configuration provides  added flexibility for families and solo travellers.   One of the rooms is a triple (a bunk and an extra bed).  The ship has 7 twin cabins and 3 double bed cabins located in the lower and upper decks of the yacht. All cabins have a private bathroom and air conditioning. The 6 upper deck cabins all have windows while our 4 lower deck cabins have portholes with great interior natural light. All our rooms include ensuite bathrooms with hairdryers and toiletries.
