★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 754 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $119

Review of Puerto Vallarta's 5-hour luxury yacht and snorkel cruise to Majahuitas, with lunch, paddleboards, premium drinks, and practical tips.

“We had a great time on this adventure! My wife and I got there about 30 minutes early, paid our 40 pesos (per person) fee and headed to Vallarta Adventures. It’s a little messy getting into the port, but once in, the crew is fabulous. We sailed for about an hour to go snorkel, then headed to a private beach that serves hibiscus water and beer, and headed back to port while eating a charcuterie lunch and consumed adult beverages. They take great pictures of you the whole trip and you can buy the digital package for $100 US at the end (totally worth it.) All in all, a great…”

“I want to leave a 5-star review for my pre-wedding boat party with Chicca Loca Tours. We originally had a different yacht booked, but had to switch because that boat wasn’t renovated in time. I was honestly pretty worried at first—but the owner, Gil, reassured me that everything would still be amazing, and wow… he was absolutely RIGHT.”

Review of ChicaFun 1, a private Puerto Vallarta yacht charter with snorkeling, beaches, waterslides, drinks, snacks, and custom stops.

“We saw so many whales and had the best time with the staff. They even weng above and beyond with a birthday cake for our friend turning 30. No one ever had a second without a drink in their hand. The only tip is that the boat is not in PV and it was about a 40-50 min drive to get to there location. Well worth the travel time. The photographer was also swell!!!”

Cruise Puerto Vallarta’s Bay of Banderas on a luxury yacht with lunch, open bar, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and time at Majahuitas Cove.

“This activity was great. We had trouble finding some details though, so going to provide more here. Our hotel was close to Puerto Mágico so we walked there. We had to arrive by 8, you go through and pay for the harbor fee, then through a metal detector. The boat leaves at 8:30 AM. The boat is beautiful! Lots of places for lounging. Our boat had about 25 people on it but it didn’t feel crowded. 4 bathrooms on board. Started with a fruit snack, saw a ton of whales and dolphins, boated for an hour, snorkeled about 30 min, boated to another area where there was an island to…”
