A great day in PV

Jonathan and Chema were our guide and boat captain both were awesome. We had a great time snorkeling, hiking to the waterfall and a great lunch on the beach. Appreciated the local tips and knowledge they offered. Do not hesitate to go with these guys. A great day on the water!
Amazing Day Trip for Snorkleing and Water fall adventure
freiburg97, 27-11-2021
Great day spent with out Captain Chema and our boat driver. Started at 9:30 and hopped on the boat downtown PV. (Pro Tip: they have a cooler on board with water but you can bring your own drinks for the boat ride!)
A short boat trip brought us to the Arches to snorkel. This was the first time snorkeling with our 8 and 12 year old. They did great. The location was pretty busy but still had plenty of space to see some pretty interesting fish and reef. Also lots of interesting birds to see if you take a break and look up!
After snorkeling we took an approx 45 boat trip to Yelapa. Beautiful views all the way. Passed some fun landmarks. Hopped off boat at pier to hike to waterfall. Lots of sellers / vendors trying to sell items but that’s expected. They were respectful of “no”.
Waterfall hike was easy. Did it in flip flops. Nice small pool to wade into under the waterfall. Spent about 15 minutes before returning down again. At bottom took boat over to beach for lunch. It’s clear everybody is working together-the tour guides, the water taxis, the restaurants…but everybody was pleasant and helpful. Spent about 90 minutes at lunch and the boarded water taxi back to boat for return trip.
It’s a pretty long boat trip back. One kiddo slept. We did spot some dolphin-like pod! Very cool end to the trip.
We were happy to have a couple towels, sunscreen, small $ bills (they ask for pesos, but USD was fine just not the best exchange rate),
Backpack to carry items.
Would definitely recommend. Kids especially loved it. Was a great intro to snorkeling and I k ow we will be doing it on future trips. We felt safe and taken care of by Chema.
Must-do Boat/Yacht Tour

We love this tour, so much so we've done it twice! This last time we actually did it on a Yacht! The boat tour was awesome but the yacht was on another level! We were treated like royalty and had a blast! This is a must-do!
Boat Tour to Yelapa

My husband and I were the only ones on the boat. They tailored the tour to how much time we wanted to spend at each stop. We enjoyed the crew and the information they shared about the area and day to day life in PV. The area is gorgeous and the waterfall and town of Yelapa was an experience to see! Fun lunch at Fanny’s. Recommend this tour for those who want to see more of the area
Relaxing and fun
PicassoKs, 04-11-2022
Jonathan and Chema captain and they were wonderful. It was a surprise that my husband and I were the only passengers!! Snorkeling was awesome! It was a much needed relaxing time with my husband since we traveled with my mother who is 81, my sister and a caretaker. I would have put 5 stars, but I am a little spoiled with spectacular waterfalls in Monterrey Mexico. I am more of an ocean versus river woman. We had lunch at an adjoining beach. It was the most relaxing day we had!Both Jonathan and Chemo for fantastic. No complaints on my end!
