Far from the bustling city life of Puerto Vallarta lies the hidden coastline and jungle of Banderas Bay, waiting to be explored. Board an all-weather inflatable boat that whisks you away to the southern coastline of Puerto Vallarta. Hop off onto the remote seaside village of Quimixto. Ride through the lush mountains and thick jungle of Sierra Madre on horseback as your expert guide spouts interesting trivia about this landmark.

Cool off as you plunge into a swimming hole at the base of a waterfall. After this, visit Pizota, a local fishing village with unmatched tropical scenery. Here, you will enjoy a delicious barbecue lunch under the sun, including dishes like grilled steak and chicken, Mexican beans, salsa, and quesadillas, replete with cheesecake for dessert. After lunch, relax on a hammock with your favorite cocktail in hand from the open bar. If you’re up for an adventure, kayak along the crystal clear coastline, hike to a private waterfall, or snorkel along the vibrant coral reef with tropical fish!
