What to do

Embark on an unforgettable tropical adventure with our exclusive speedboat tour from Nuevo Vallarta or Puerto Vallarta to Yelapa.

This tour is perfect for lovers of the sea, nature, and local culture. It combines excitement, exploration, and relaxation in some of the most beautiful corners of Banderas Bay along Mexico's Pacific coast.

Your day begins aboard a high-speed speedboat, cruising over the deep blue waters toward the southern part of the bay. You’ll enjoy panoramic views of the ocean, the mountainous coastline, and the refreshing sea breeze that marks the start of your adventure. Your first destination is Yelapa, a charming fishing village nestled between the jungle and the sea, where time seems to stand still. Here, you'll have the chance to stroll through its picturesque cobblestone alleys, visit a waterfall hidden amidst tropical vegetation, and experience the local lifestyle of this hidden gem in Jalisco.

After immersing yourself in the culture of Yelapa, you'll set sail for one of the bay's most pristine beaches, a prime spot for snorkeling in Los Cabos—weather permitting, as we prioritize your safety and the quality of your experience. In this underwater paradise, you’ll marvel at an impressive variety of marine life, including lobsters, turtles, starfish, octopuses, and a colorful array of tropical fish that inhabit the region's rocky reefs. In addition to snorkeling, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the sea on kayaks and floating mats, perfect for relaxing, sunbathing, or simply drifting along with the waves.

The day continues with a stop at Madagascar Beach, where a delicious meal and refreshing drinks await you oceanfront, all set in a natural atmosphere that invites you to unwind and enjoy. On your way back to the port, you’ll make a brief stop to admire and take photographs of the Mismaloya Arches, an iconic rock formation that emerges from the sea like a natural monument. It will be the perfect ending to a day full of discovery, breathtaking landscapes, and memorable moments.

This tour is ideal for travelers looking to combine adventure, culture, and relaxation into a single day. It's perfect for couples, families, and groups of friends seeking a complete Puerto Vallarta experience.
