Highlights

Guests may snorkel or relax on the boat while learning about the local marine ecosystem and wildlife. At 9:00 PM, we continue into the vibrant nightlife of Zona Romántica and the famous Malecón Puerto Vallarta, visiting local taco stands, the snack section, bars, and other iconic spots around the city. Food is not included, so guests may order and pay for whatever they wish to try.

About Puerto Vallarta
Cobbled streets, a seaside boardwalk and jungle-clad mountains give Puerto Vallarta, on Mexico's Banderas Bay, its easy Pacific charm.
The Malecón, a long seafront boardwalk lined with bronze sculptures, links the old town with restaurants, bars and galleries, and the parish church of Guadalupe crowns the centre with its distinctive crown-topped tower. The Romantic Zone, south of the Cuale River, has cobbled lanes, Los Muertos Beach and its pier, and a lively evening scene.
Top-ranked sights in Puerto Vallarta: Banderas Bay (Bahía de Banderas), El Malecon, Los Arcos National Marine Park.
