What to expect
Just off the coast of Puerto Vallarta, you'll find the secluded Marietas Islands – and the best snorkelling conditions in the bay. You'll cruise over by catamaran and discover the submarine beauty of this uninhabited archipelago, exploring the abundant marine life protected by the underwater national park status.
You'll sail across Banderas Bay towards the Marietas. When the captain drops anchor, your guides will take you snorkeling and introduce you to all the creatures that call Marietas home. It's not hard to see why famed oceanographer Jacques Cousteau fell in love with these islands and started the movement to protect them.
Also included is a BBQ lunch at the exclusive Majahuitas Beach Club, which is located at one of the most secluded and beautiful beaches on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. Amid all that natural beauty, you can relax at the club or enjoy activities like snorkeling, paddleboard and kayaking.
