Discover hidden beaches and natural caves

Learn about the ecological importance of the islands

Experience a sea-level perspective of marine life

Perfect for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts

Experience the natural beauty and wildlife of Puerto Vallarta on a memorable tour to the iconic Lover’s Beach and the ecologically diverse Marietas Islands. These islands serve as a sanctuary teeming with life, including over 100 species of unique birds and fish, set against the backdrop of stunning cave formations, rock archways, and a hidden beach that feels like a secret paradise. Traveling in a small group aboard a comfortable inflatable boat allows for an intimate and immersive experience as you swim through the caves and explore the extraordinary terrain. During the winter months, the tour offers an incredible opportunity to witness the spectacular annual migration of humpback whales, as they arrive from Alaska to the warm, sheltered waters of the Bay of Banderas to mate and raise their young. Watching these magnificent creatures breach, fin flap, and lob tail from the close vantage point of the boat is a thrilling and unforgettable encounter with nature. Adding to the excitement, playful wild dolphins often put on a show, leaping and splashing near the boat, giving guests a rare chance to see these beautiful animals up close in their natural environment. This tour perfectly combines adventure, wildlife observation, and breathtaking scenery for an extraordinary experience in Puerto Vallarta.
