OVERVIEW

A marine national park and bird sanctuary

Marietas Islands is considered to be one of the best snorkeling locations in the area.

A profuse biodiversity which counts 115 fish and 92 species of birds living in the area, Marietas Islands was granted the title of National Park not so long ago, thanks to the work of a group of biologists led by Jacques Cousteau, originally started in the 60’.

Now a recognized UNESCO site, the islands were originally a military training zone, used by the mexican army as a bomb testing location.

Cousteau and his fellow scientists were the first to recognize the abundant biodiversity of the islands, their remarkable flora and fauna down and above the water.

Here you can swim in clear waters, relax on pristine beaches, and snorkel in natural coves. Marietas Islands are definitely a must see during your vacation in the Nayarit Riviera.

What to Expect

Close and personal with the many wonders Marietas have to offer

An intimate way to get to know one of the most famous treasures of the riviera Nayarit. From the comfort of the boat, you will be able to observe a great variety of seabirds, the most famous among them the blue footed booby, also frigate birds and seagulls to mention a few. Around them, the ocean teems with marine life; a great variety of fish find food and shelter between these volcanic rooks, moorish idols, damselfish, as well as surgeonfish, angelfish and puffers. Following the guidelines of the park rangers in place, 2 beaches can be visited at the islands, the only 2 places where the tourists have actually access onland: Hidden Beach and Playa Nopalera.

While the Hidden Beach requires prior reservation you can freely visit playa Nopalera depending on ocean conditions.

During the winter months, whale watching will be added to the regular schedule of the excursion.

An intimate adventure for a close group of friends

A family friendly excursion, perfect for those who don’t like the big crowds, this boat trip will fit a limited number of guests. Meeting point will be the dive center in Sayulita from where round transportation to the boat in Punta de Mita is provided.

After 3 hours spent in the ocean the group will be driven back to Sayulita for lunch.

Returning to Sayulita

Lunch will happen at our local favorite in town; beer and tacos to wrap up a memorable day.
