Overview

This guided adventure invites you to feel the harmony where the warm waters of the bay meet the lush jungle. As you hike beneath the shaded canopy, you’ll be surrounded by the sounds of nature and the cool embrace of the sea, making the journey as refreshing as the destination. The scenic 30‑minute bus ride along the bay sets the tone, filling you with anticipation as stunning coastal views unfold before your eyes.

Hiking, you’ll pause at some of the bay’s most beautiful beaches—Playa Colomitas, Playa Caballo, and Playa Madagascar—where swimming in crystal waters or simply resting on the sand will leave you feeling rejuvenated. The adventure culminates at Playa Las Animas, where you’ll have 2–3 hours to savor a leisurely lunch, soak up the sun, and enjoy the vibrant beach atmosphere. Whether you choose to return by boat or extend your hike back to Boca, you’ll leave with a sense of accomplishment, relaxation, and a deeper connection to Puerto Vallarta’s natural treasures.
