Start your adventure with a continental breakfast aboard the boat as you set out across the sparkling waters of Banderas Bay. Keep your eyes open for the incredible marine life that calls this area home—humpback whales in season, playful dolphins, sea turtles, giant manta rays, and a variety of exotic seabirds may make a surprise appearance, adding a touch of wonder to your journey. The cruise itself offers stunning panoramic views of the bay, providing the perfect introduction to the natural beauty that awaits at the Marietas Islands.
Upon arrival at the famous Marietas Islands, dive into the crystal-clear waters of a protected marine park for an unforgettable snorkeling experience. Swim among colorful fish and vibrant corals, and with some luck, you might spot the rare Blue-Footed Booby, a unique bird found only here and in the Galapagos Islands. Back on the boat, relax with your favorite drink from the open bar while taking in the breathtaking scenery. An expert guide shares fascinating insights about the islands, making this trip a perfect blend of adventure, wildlife encounters, and relaxation, all set against the backdrop of a UNESCO-protected paradise.

Ricky

Excellent service from Jose and Chuy, went above and beyond to make everyone feel safe. We did the private tour from Punta de Mita and couldn’t be happier. The boat ride was short and smooth. Access to Palya Escondida (Playa del Amor) requires some basic fitness level as you’ll need to swim through a cave tunnel which might look and feel confronting to first time ocean swimmers due to the current/swell but staff was extremely helpful and calm at navigating my 70 yr old parents safely through it. Honestly, I don’t think they would have made it on a bigger group ha. Thanks so much !

Rueben was a fantastic tour guide and David was a great driver. We saw a ton of fish while snorkeling, hidden beach was stunning and we saw around 5 whales as a bonus! 100% would recommend this day trip.

Highlight of our trip to Mexico! Our guide Ruben was fun, knowledgeable, and took lots of photos for us. The office staff were able to watch our bags during our excursion. We basically had Hidden Island to ourselves and we saw lots of fish during the snorkel. On the way back we saw around 8 humpback whales. Very cool experience!!

Activities fun sup and kayak and snorkeling. Didn’t see many fish but water felt great and water very clear and lovely. Food was great and crew very helpful.

Wow! What an amazing experience. The week we were in the area it was a little stormy, but GRIMAR was still able to take us on the Hidden Beach trip. Rueben, our guide was so sweet and helped us have a great time. I was a little nervous about swimming through the sea cave at high tide in the choppy water, but Rueben was with us every step of the way and even pulled my husband (who isn’t the strongest swimmer) to the hidden beach. Rueben took great photos of us and let us have our space when exploring the beaches we stopped at. My husband and I are not in the best shape, but we’re still able to do the excursion with ease. I’d highly recommend GRIMAR ADVENTURES!

Able to book via email and what's app communication. Local operator with very small town feel. Get a more authentic taste of Punta Mita and support a local business! Not a big commerical business like Vallarta or Punta Mita tours so you can save some costs. Our tour guide Martin was great. Hidden Beach Tour. We saw whales, explored caves to the hidden Beach, did snorkeling to see beautiful fish, visited another secluded Beach. It was awesome! If you want a nice tour with a hometown feel instead of a commercial product this is the way to go. We had a small group of 4 people which made it even more personal. Definitely recommend using Grimar Adventures!
