Overview

Discover the Wonders of Los Arcos – Puerto Vallarta’s Premier Snorkeling Paradise

Just 6 miles south of Puerto Vallarta, Los Arcos is a stunning group of granite islets rising from the turquoise waters of Bahía de Banderas. Known for their natural rock arches, these islets are perfect for snorkeling and kayaking. The area teems with life—colorful reef fish, manta rays, corals, and, with luck, sea turtles. Above, seabirds like pelicans, frigatebirds, and herons nest among the rocks. Whether you're exploring underwater or simply enjoying the view, Los Arcos offers an unforgettable experience and a unique chance to connect with the natural beauty of Mexico’s Pacific coast.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private trip: snorkeling at Los Arcos & Colomitos beach?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

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.
