A Day Spent Cruising Banderas Bay

by Douglas on June 3, 2008

Recently, we had the opportunity to spend the day cruising Banderas Bay with some friends. It had been at least a couple of years since we had been invited on a day cruise and we jumped at the chance to go. When you are in town, charter a boat for the day. It’s a great way to experience Puerto Vallarta.

Puerto Vallarta as seen from the water. We took this picture at about 10:00am. The water is really calm in the morning. As the day progresses, it gets choppier.

The Marigalante Pirate Ship. On the pirate ship you get a tour of the bay, a meal, and a pirate show. We have never gone but I have heard from many people that it is a lot of fun.

A tour boat at Los Arcos. Lots of people stop to go snorkeling around the Los Arcos rock formations. I have created a free downloadable wallpaper from the Los Arcos photo. It’s very cool.

South of Puerto Vallarta is a secluded beach, Las Animas. We stopped here and had a great lunch on the beach. I recommend the sopa de mariscos (seafood soup) at the Caracol Restaurant. The staff is super friendly.
