What To Expect

We will depart from Nuevo or Puerto Vallarta via our speed boat, the Apex. We will head south of the bay until we reach Yelapa, a picturesque little fishing village. There we will visit the town's most important attractions, such as the waterfall and its emblematic alleys.

Afterward, we will go snorkeling at a beach south of the bay (this may vary depending on weather conditions to ensure the best snorkeling experience). Here, you will find a great diversity of marine fauna such as lobsters, turtles, starfish, octopuses, and a variety of colorful fish. You will also be able to use kayaks and floating mats.

Finally, we will head down to Madagascar beach to enjoy a delicious meal and drinks. On the way back to the port, we will make a short visit to the Mismaloya arches, where we will stop for a couple of minutes to take pictures.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
