About
MUST BE PADI CERTIFIED
Majahuitas is a beautiful string of beaches located on the south coast of Puerto Vallarta accessible only by boat. The entire bay is made up of tiny coves that offer excellent sea conditions. Calm and mellow water is perfect for Scuba or Snorkeling. The dives can be as shallow or as deep as the divers wish.
Majahuitas is not a protected marine park like Los Arcos, but is also much less visited, which means less divers and snorkelers to share the water with. As you cruise to the dive site, you’ll pass by the Puerto Vallarta skyline, Mismaloya, and Los Arcos, giving you some nice photo opportunities.
