Embark on a unique adventure to spot dolphins with a team of expert biologists and naturalists. Enjoy a delicious breakfast and light snacks onboard, and stay refreshed with soft drinks as you sail through the stunning waters of Banderas Bay.

Meet your guide at the tour supplier's office in Marina Vallarta, where you'll receive an informative briefing on the biology and ecology of dolphins.
Set sail on a small craft that offers a closer, more intimate experience with the dolphins while ensuring their well-being. Rest easy knowing that the staff is dedicated to respecting marine life and prioritising the welfare of the creatures.
As you explore Banderas Bay, you may have the chance to spot female dolphins with their newborns or observe playful groups swimming, bow surfing, and frolicking in the waves. Depending on their behaviour, you might even have the opportunity to swim with these magnificent animals.
The adventure continues with a stop at Los Arcos Marine Park, where you can snorkel through crystal-clear waters teeming with colourful marine life. Look out for eels, rays, trumpetfish, and sea turtles as you explore the vibrant underwater ecosystem.
Conclude your tour back at Marina Vallarta, filled with unforgettable memories of your encounter with the dolphins and marine life.
