About

Live the sensational experience of cruising around Puerto Vallarta and Cabo Corrientes Bay on-board the best catamaran in town — “Predator of the Seas! We will start the tour by cruising alongside the famous landmarks of our beautiful city, admiring the landscapes to make our first stop at “Los Arcos de Mismaloya,” a national marine park considered as one of the most beautiful natural monument in the Pacific. It is a great place for birdwatching, making it a perfect spot for unforgettable pictures.

Continuing with the journey, the awesome crew will open the national and international bar for you until we get to Colomitos Beach, where you will be able to go snorkeling and enjoy the beach for approximately 1 hour.

After enjoying this stop at Colomitos, our next stop will be Quimixto Beach, where you will enjoy lunch and some drinks (not included) at the “Predator Beach Club” (by Las Piñas), where you will decide between some doing beach activities (volleyball, kayak, and paddleboard), taking a sunbath or visiting the Quimixto Waterfall by renting a horse or taking a 40 minutes hike.

Close to the end of this wonderful day, it’s back on the boat for some fun as your tour guides spice it up with music, entertainment, onboard audience-participation games, and of course, unlimited drinks from the open bar!
