OMG!! it was a fantastic time. The crew was great, they had entertainment on the boat ride to the island and back. The island was remarkable. It was full of fun of water sports or you can relax in the sun. Their staff worked hard to make sure we were having fun and enjoying the lunch that was included. It reminded me of the tv show called Gilligan's Island . Don't miss this event. Once you get there, you don't wanna come back! Definitely a must do excursion.😊😊

We were on our family vacation with our 3 children. We had the best time on the boat. The crew members were kind, professional, and accommodating of all our needs. The boat itself was big and spacious. I highly recommend.

Watch and Swim with Dolphins in the Wild
Renee_R, Aug 2026
A must-do
This was, hands down, the best experience I’ve had on a trip. The staff are super knowledgeable - actual biologists - who tell you about dolphins and other sea creatures ahead of the trip. They are so kind and helpful once out at the dive location. My daughter got scared (she’s 8, and while excited, the size of the dolphins got very real, very quickly once in the water), and they offered help and comfort to her to make her feel safe and engaged. They had plenty cold drinks which they readily offered to ensure no one got dehydrated. They were concerned primarily with safety of guests and dolphins. They did not bait dolphins with food and were concerned that we were only swimming with pods that were out for fun (no mamas with babies). Truly a magical experience and made all the better by the incredible staff. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Watch and Swim with Dolphins in the Wild
Shannon_H, Aug 2026
The best experience ever!
Words cannot describe how beautiful this experience is. All of the guides (Jemma especially!) were just so knowledgeable and created such a magical experience. We took turns in smaller groups getting in the water with the dolphins and had plenty of time to see them - it's just so special to get to play with dolphins on their own terms, in their own space/ home.Highly recommend this tour! The focus on respecting the animals is so evident and important and it really was an honor to get to share space for a few hours with such incredible beings.And please never swim with captive dolphins. It's horrible for them.

Solo adventures mean setting my own pace underwater!!
An incredible experience from start to finish! The crew was exceptionally welcoming and brought fantastic energy that kept everyone entertained throughout the entire journey. The music and upbeat atmosphere made the transit to our destinations so much fun. The excursions—especially the snorkeling, beach time, horseback riding, and visiting the falls—were spectacular. I highly recommend this tour and look forward to booking with them again

The experience was straight up magical. I cannot express enough what a peaceful and surreal morning we had. Both my boys are already talking about coming back next year during whale season so we can watch both whales and dolphins next time. I recommend this tour a thousand times.

Unforgettable day!
I went to celebrate my birthday with my partner. We had a great day. We did everything they suggested. I liked that we are truly taking care of the environment while visiting. The service attitude of the entire crew was GREAT. The food was good and necessary for such an adventure. It is clear that they are looking for ways to keep it sustainable. They do not insist much on selling you photos or tours (and still, I almost bought everything). Several people felt a bit seasick; that's how the sea is. For the photos, you need to make sure no one else is in your shot.

Culture, Snorkelling and relaxation - The Best!!
We went in a zodiac made for 39 people but we were only 18 so it wasn’t tight quarters. Our guide was Manuel and our capitan was Miguel. Manuel was funny and really knew his stuff and made our trip wonderful! Really enjoyed ourselves! The waterfall didnt have much water but the ocean was warm for the snorkelling and Manuel even showed me some beautiful fish. He was very helpful as I struggled to get into the zodiac after snorkelling. We had lunch on the beach and it was a very relaxing day as well as enjoying the Mexican culture in Yelapa. Manual and Miguel were also very good with safety and looking after us. Worth every peso!!

Amazing experience!
This was awesome! Better than we could have imagined or hoped for. Our guides were the best - so friendly, knowledgeable, experienced, and enthusiastic! About 10 of us were in a safe boat with room to move around. We saw so many whales - even ones that fully breached the surface of the water! Also saw a ton of dolphins and a sea turtle. I would do this again in heartbeat - what a cool experience! Muchas gracias!

Wow! From start to finish this was a great experience. The staff are wonderful- so attentive with drinks, clearing used plates. Our guide provided informative facts and told enough jokes to make the tour interesting. We saw more whales than I expected, from the legally required distance. Vallarta Adventures is a highly-organized operation, definitely recommend!
