About the experience.

Majahuitas sits on the southern coast of the bay, a reef-lined cove with no road access, and the morning is spent in its water: snorkeling and kayaking with the equipment on board. Continental breakfast is served on the crossing.

In the afternoon the boat moves along the coast to Yelapa, where a golden-sand beach fronts the village and a trail leads to the waterfall. A deli-style lunch is served, with an open bar on board and entertainment on the way back.

Departures are from the Maritime Terminal or Nuevo Vallarta.

Experiences

Yelapa Boat Tour

Yelapa is still a fishing village at heart: restaurants on the sand, a waterfall in the jungle behind it, and no road in. This boat day gives you two and a half hours there, after a swim stop at Colimilla.
