About the experience.
The day begins with a speedboat ride across Banderas Bay to a cove on the coast. Once there, the activities are yours to work through in any order. Parasailing takes you up over the water for the view; the zip-line runs at speed straight into the sea; the Step-Up is a test of agility and nerve at height.
The Thriller is a jet-propelled boat that spins and drifts in ways a normal boat cannot. There is time to snorkel, and the sea lion encounter starts with a short poolside introduction to their physiology and feeding habits before a trainer brings you into the shallow pool with them.
A light snack and water are included. Departures are from the Maritime Terminal or Nuevo Vallarta.

Thriller Jet Boat Ride
The Thriller is a jet-propelled speedboat that drifts, corners like a car and spins through full 360-degree turns on open water. A short, fast ride on Banderas Bay.
Parasailing
Roughly six minutes in the air over Banderas Bay, high enough for the whole coastline, low enough to spot dolphins, manta rays or, in season, whales in the water below.
Dolphin & Sea Lion Programs
Nine programs with Pacific bottlenose dolphins and sea lions at the dolphin center in Nuevo Vallarta, from a 20-minute poolside encounter for non-swimmers to a full day working beside the trainers.
