Open-bar boat day to Marietas Islands with snorkeling, kayaking, lunch, drinks, and possible Hidden Beach permits plus whale sightings.
“Great day with something for everyone. Crew was awesome and very attentive to all ages and abilities. Breakfast probably could have used 3 minny carb muffins instead of 2 as everyone was starved well before lunch. Otherwise food was excellent. Highly recommend. Lots of room on boat for everyone and was not overly crowded.”

Full-day Islas Marietas tour with breakfast, snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, Nopalera beach time, and open bar.
“Pretty good. There weren’t a lot of fish where we snorkelled and the water was hard to see through. We enjoyed the eco tour even if it was kind of short. I wish the guide would have informed us more about the beach called Deadman’s cave, (it starts with a C in Spanish) which he offered for us to do but it was 2pm by then and we hadn’t had lunch yet and it was going to be another 50+ minutes. Another couple we met on the excursion went and were really impressed. They wished the guide had encouraged more to go, their disappointment was they were told they would…”
