This should be called a snorkel eco-adventure, as our exceptional guides are naturalists well educated and experienced in the wilds outside Puerto Vallarta proper. Because of the training of our guides, your 45-minute panoramic ride along the coastline will be narrated with information pertaining to the points of interest you will pass, dotted with history and knowledge of the flora and fauna.
Continental breakfast will be waiting for you before you board the boat for a 25-minute ride to the islands. Everyone will enjoy the coffee, tea, juices, fruit, and the terrific Mexican pastries and sweet rolls.
The boat has a partial bimini for protection from the sun while you travel the waters. Once you arrive at the Marietas Islands, you will stop for 2 snorkels, one at each island. This area is known for huge schools of tropical fish. Sea turtles, dolphins, giant mantas and coral reefs are also part of the Marietas’ marine life. Your guides will help distinguish the diversity of the underwater ecosystem and rock formations. Your snorkeling portion will last about 1.5 hours.
As the boat returns to the mainland, you might notice hunger striking your stomach. The antidote for that is your next stop, time to relax and enjoy a lunch at the beach. A complete lunch at a beachside restaurant at El Anclote Beach is included.
Most likely you will nap all the way back to the starting point, but you will have plenty to talk about if not.
