What To Expect

In this hike we will explore different hidden beaches following a Beach/Jungle trail

ABOUT:
We meet in Zona Romantica, old center of Puerto Vallarta. Here we take an urban transport just like the locals do!

After a pleasant 25 min ride along the coast we get off at a picturesque fisher town.
Here we start our hike following the riverbank and ascent in the tropical forest with some amazing views!

A short 40 minute hike brings us to our first destination: Colomitos Beach, officially the smallest beach in Mexico!
After a rest and pictures we continue our path and leave the many tourist behind us to explore more hidden beaches.

Here we have the opportunity to swim alone and feel in paradise.
If the sea is calm, we will visit a secret place where to snorkel and observe a great diversity of fish!

After this refreshing break we continue to our final destination: 'Playa las animas'.
Here we can have an incredible local seafood plate. (Not included)

Last but not least we take the boat back to where we started the hike. Here we will see the bay from a total different perspective!

Cool Puerto Vallarta wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Puerto Vallarta over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
