We head directly to one of the best cliff-jumping spots in the area. Choose between a 15-foot jump for a quick thrill or a higher leap for a greater challenge.
If you prefer not to jump, you can enjoy the spectacle from the boat or swim in the clear blue waters below!
Following the jumps, we transition to an amazing snorkeling session. Dive into the vibrant underwater world and swim alongside colorful fish and perhaps even an eagle ray!
We will also cruise through the iconic arches and caves, offering a close-up view of this incredible marine sanctuary.
After the activities, we will take you to a hidden beach accessible only by boat. Here, you can relax on the golden sand, swim in the turquoise waters, or explore the rocky coastline. This is your time to unwind and soak up the natural beauty of Puerto Vallarta’s coast.

Short but cute

Our guides were amazing and filled with great information, the hidden beach was probably the best part being the waters weren’t clear due to storms, it was only about 2 hours once you hit water.
Response from the operator · Mismaloya Xtrem... C Thank you so much for your review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed our guides and the hidden beach! Unfortunately, recent storms affected the water clarity, which is beyond our control, but we're glad you still had a great experience. Our tour is designed to last approximately 2 hours on the water, allowing guests to explore several beautiful spots along the way. We hope to welcome you back soon with clearer waters! 🌊🐠

Super fun!
Audrey_W, October 2026
Uli and Kiki were great! We had so much fun, the tour ended up being just my husband and I but the experience was still fun nonetheless. We got to cliff jump, snorkel, and hang out on a private secluded beach with drinks (beer, water, soda) and a massive Bluetooth speaker provided. They even brought the boat around to take a look at a sea lion for us. Would definitely recommend.
Response from the operator · Mismaloya Xtrem... C Thank you so much for your amazing review! 🌊 We're thrilled to hear you had such a great time with Uli and Kiki! Sometimes smaller groups make for an even more personal and memorable adventure. We're glad you enjoyed the cliff jumping, snorkeling, relaxing at the secluded beach, and even got a special encounter with a sea lion! 🦭 We'll definitely share your kind words with our team. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to see you again soon! 💙

Dope
F4582DCaudreyw, October 2026
Our experiance with Uli and Kiki was amazing, they were knowledgeable and very fun. There were beverages provided as well as a remote beach alone time. Additionally we explored areas with sea lions and local birds and rock structures. Even when our boat engine got a rope caught in it temporarily they were very reassuring and friendly. You’re even provided a Bluetooth speaker to connect to, which is dope. 10/10 would recommend and extremely affordable
Response from the operator · Mismaloya Xtrem... C Thank you so much for your wonderful review and recommendation! 💙🌊 We're so happy you had an amazing adventure with Uli and Kiki! Our team loves sharing their knowledge of the area while making sure everyone has a fun and memorable experience.
We also appreciate your understanding during the unexpected rope incident. Safety and making our guests feel comfortable are always our priorities.
We're glad you enjoyed the wildlife, beautiful scenery, secluded beach, and even the music on board! 🎶🐠 We'll make sure Uli and Kiki hear your kind words. Hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
