Princesa Las Caletas Beach Day

This unforgettable half-day cruise aboard the Princesa will transport you to two excellent snorkeling destinations: Caletas and Las Animas. You can explore the natural world on both land and under the surface of Banderas Bay on this exciting ecological excursion. Not only can you snorkel above teeming coral gardens, but you can also hike from the beach to explore jungle trails.

The first amazing beach that Princesa will transport you to is Caletas -- a beach on a remote cove that once was the vacation property of acclaimed film director John Huston. Huston shot his critically-acclaimed 1964 movie, The Night of the Iguana, in Puerto Vallarta. This on-location film shoot gave this relatively quiet Mexican port town some much needed international attention, attracting developers who transformed Puerto Vallarta into an international vacation destination. Huston selected Caletas as the site to build his estate. Situated in a remote cove, the beach at Caletas borders a dense stretch of jungle. You'll see a variety of exotic flora and fauna as you trek along the jungle trails that lead inland from the beach. You'll be serenaded by brilliantly colored birds as you wander through this tropical paradise. You can then sunbathe on the white sands of Caletas beach before entering the crystal-clear waters of the cove for some snorkeling. Just a few steps into the water, an awe-inspiring spectrum of underwater life awaits. Banderas Bay is home to hundreds of aquatic species and you are sure to see some of the most beautiful and intriguing examples at Caletas, including octopi, rays, and marine turtles.

More undersea marvels, as well as plenty of water activities, await you at the second stop on this tour, Las Animas. Lie out on the beach, hike into the wilds, kayak, and snorkel or play organized beach games. You

Then you will depart for Las Animas, another gorgeous beach where you can sunbathe, play beach games, hike, snorkel and kayak. Both Caletas and Las Animas give visitors to Puerto Vallarta the opportunity to be amazed by the natural wonders along Banderas Bay.
