Arcos Snorkel Expedition

If you are looking for a fun and safe snorkeling expedition to the amazing national marine sanctuary at Los Arcos, book this tour with the Puerto Vallarta snorkeling and diving professionals, Chico's.

You'll be awestruck as you approach the magnificent granite islands of Los Arcos, named for the many arch-like formations seen throughout the isles. Endless years of wind and water have carved these unique structures from the rock face. The rocky surface also extends below the water line, providing excellent shelter for countless marine species. Los Arcos is also home to some fabulous shallow coral reefs, where a spectrum of tropical fish darts about the fans and sea anemones. You may spot any number of fish species, including Angels, Puffers, Cornets, Parrots and Damsels.

No need to worry about swimming a full football field in distance from the boat to the snorkeling site. We utilize customized state-of-the-art shallow-draught dive vessels that can transport you straight to the action.

Our expertly-trained staff gives clients a fully comprehensive snorkeling experience. Our staff will provide you and your party with only the latest, thoroughly inspected, snorkeling gear to utilize on your adventure at Los Arcos.

We won't send you into the waters of Los Arcos without any preparation. Our snorkeling expeditions come with complimentary instruction, an immersive snorkeling clinic, as well as an orientation on the incredible habitat and wild denizens of Banderas Bay.

We are fully dedicated to your well-being on this tour -- only our dive operation provides a PADI fully certified dive master along with an additional observer to ensure your safety. Chico's is the only PADI-certified snorkeling operation in Puerto Vallarta -- so be sure to enjoy an exciting snorkeling trip to Los Arcos with the snorkeling and scuba diving professionals.
