Is it safe?
A calm, 3-hour catamaran cruise that suits families and couples. Life jackets should be available on board; ask before the swim stop and keep alcohol in check.
•Ask the crew to show you where the life jackets are, and wear one for the swim stop, especially for children.
•There is an open bar. Alternate with water, and skip swimming if you have had a lot to drink.
•Seasickness risk is low on a catamaran, but if you are prone to it, take medication beforehand and sit in the middle of the boat.
•The sun is gentler near sunset, but the wind off the water can feel cool: bring a light layer.
•Evenings in the bay get dark quickly. The cruise departs from Marina Vallarta, so plan how you will get back to your hotel.
Always confirm with the operator: rules and conditions can change.
