Marietas Islands snorkeling & Hidden beach (w/ restrictions)
Overview
Marietas Island is a national marine protected area that is why we have the best naturalists and biologists on boat. They will share their expertice with you.
Our boat is comfortable, safe and fast.
We only take small groups (max 10 per boat) and our trip is really focused on snorkeling and enjoying the beauty of the islands and visit the hidden beach (with some restriction out to our control). Only 116 persons have access to the hidden beach and you can be lucky to get to swim to inside. (NOT EXTRA COST ADDITIONAL).
Our biologist and naturalist take you to discover great beaches and beautiful scenery amongst blue footed boobies and other wildlife.
