Boat And Snorkel Tours
Five boats run snorkel trips on Banderas Bay: three head for the Los Arcos marine reserve, one adds cliff jumping and Hidden Beach, and one covers Marietas Islands National Park. From $48 per person.
Swimmers of mixed confidence fit here. The basic Los Arcos runs keep things easy, the cliff-jumping trip draws the adventurous, and the luxury yacht option throws in open bar and lunch for a relaxed day.
5 tours, from $48 per person.

When To Book Your Tour In Puerto Vallarta
Humpbacks pass through the bay December to March, so snorkel boats often share the water with whale watchers. The official Eastern Pacific hurricane window runs May 15 to November 30, with August through October the peak.
Bay trips pick up in the Puerto Vallarta hotel zone, Marina Vallarta and Nuevo Vallarta. Each listing names its exact meeting point, so check the live booking page before you head out.
