Private Sunset Catamaran Cruise in Puerto Vallarta

Banderas Bay faces west, which is why the sunset here is the thing everyone photographs. From the water, with no buildings in the way, it is a different event entirely.

Three hours, private boat, no park restrictions, with music on and the bar open from the dock. You cruise to a calm anchor for a last swim while the light is still high, then settle in with drinks, appetizers and the horizon. This is the tour people book for an anniversary, a proposal or a last night in town.

You board at La Cruz Marina, Dock #1 at golden hour, with welcome drinks as you leave. After the swim stop, you settle in on deck with the bar open and appetizers out for sunset, then cruise back to the marina under the evening sky.

Departure Point: La Cruz Marina, Dock #1, La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, Riviera Nayarit Group Size: Up to 10 guests on the smaller catamaran, or up to 20 on the 60ft power catamaran (private charter) Boat: 48 to 56ft catamaran for up to 10 guests, or 60ft power catamaran for up to 20 guests
