MARIETAS ISLANDS SCUBA DIVE
This is considered the top overall diving destination in Puerto Vallarta. The islands offer coral reefs, underwater caves, humpback whales, dolphins, and giant manta rays up to 25 feet across, as well as hordes of tropical fish. If you only dive one site this trip, consider this one strongly. The visibility is better than the sites closer to shore, but it is also the furthest dive site in Banderas Bay, at 21 miles from shore, so it's a good distance in the boat. Cruise Passengers: Yes! This tour makes a great shore excursion. Runs: Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 9:00 AM. Duration: 6 hours Visibility and Water Temperature:

OUR ADVICE: The Marietas Islands are the best all-around dive site in Puerto Vallarta. You'll see lots of fish, coral, and often large fish and other pelagics. It's a marine preserve, and it shows.
