Experience Details

This adventure combines snorkeling, culture, nature, and relaxation while exploring some of the most beautiful and less-visited areas of the bay. The day begins with snorkeling at Los Arcos Marine Park, an iconic sanctuary known for its dramatic rock arches and vibrant tropical fish. Guests then visit the small coastal village of Quimixto, where they step inside a local home to see traditional tortillas and molcajete salsa prepared by hand, offering an authentic glimpse into everyday coastal life. The experience continues inland with a scenic horseback ride through lush jungle trails leading to a hidden waterfall where guests can relax and swim. The day concludes at the secluded beach of Pizota, accessible mainly by boat, where a freshly prepared beach BBQ is served by the ocean in a peaceful natural setting.
