Why not house your X-T3? SeaFrogs has a fairly affordable option at $655 with dome, plus $120 for a vacuum system.

$800 is a lot to spend for a snorkel trip, esp at a locale that is challenging enough for scuba photography.   The iguanas are one good spot, but many of the others...seems like overkill to spend on gear.   Rent maybe, but I'd be pointing to just enjoying the views, not adding a major distraction.   Galapagos is not a great first place to try out something new.
