Marietas Sail, Snorkel and Beach

Description
Marietas Islands Sailing & Snorkeling Adventure
Set sail across the sparkling Pacific toward the breathtaking Marietas Islands National Park, a UNESCO-protected sanctuary brimming with natural wonders. As we head out, take in the stunning ocean views, sip on your favorite drink, and let the beauty of Banderas Bay set the tone for your adventure.
Upon arrival, our experienced guides will lead you on a snorkeling excursion in crystal-clear waters, where you’ll encounter a colorful variety of tropical fish, along with the chance to spot fascinating marine creatures such as octopus, spotted rays, seahorses, and turtles.
For nature lovers, the Marietas are a paradise. Home to over 100 bird species, including rare and exotic varieties, the islands also showcase dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, caves, and striking rock formations—making it a true photographer’s dream. If relaxation is more your style, unwind on a secluded beach, soak in the sun, and embrace the tranquility of this pristine escape.
On the return sail, feel the warmth of the afternoon breeze as we glide back to port, reflecting on an unforgettable day of discovery.
✨ Bonus: From December 8th to March 15th, keep your eyes on the horizon—you may be treated to the incredible sight of migrating humpback whales in Banderas Bay!
