Top Mismaloya Nature and Wildlife Tours

Experience everything the South Banderas Bay has to offer during this full-day multi-activity tour. Sink your toes into beautiful, white sand beaches, take a refreshing dip in the Yelapa Waterfalls, go snorkeling in caves, hike through the jungle, and spot magnificent tropical birds. Wind down on Playa Colomitos –the “beach of love”–before one last chance to explore the underwater world in Los Arcos National Marine Park.

Experience Los Arcos differently—under your own power. Instead of taking a crowded boat, paddle there by kayak or stand-up paddleboard while enjoying the coastline and incredible scenery. The journey is part of the adventure. Choose the equipment that best suits you and explore with experienced local guides who know these waters and help you feel comfortable from the moment you start paddling. Our small groups offer a more personal experience, with attentive guidance and time to enjoy the ocean, snorkel, and discover the marine life around Los Arcos at a relaxed pace. With no engines and no rush, you can hear the ocean, connect with nature, and discover this iconic marine area from water level instead of from a boat. An active, personal, and environmentally friendly way to explore one of Puerto Vallarta’s most spectacular natural landmarks—and a very different experience from a traditional boat tour.
