The harbor
In Puerto Vallarta most yachts and catamarans leave from Marina Vallarta, on Banderas Bay.
Los Arcos is the marine park of rocks off Mismaloya: snorkel and caves. Locally a charter of about four hours reaches it. Islas Marietas is not the same run: it sits toward Punta Mita and needs a longer day; the captain tells you if that date closes.
South, if the day allows, there are beaches such as Las Ánimas or Yelapa. Humpbacks December to March. We are still opening the catalog here.
