Los Arcos Kayak & Paddleboard Adventure with Snorkeling

Overview

Experience Los Arcos differently—under your own power. Instead of taking a crowded boat, paddle there by kayak or stand-up paddleboard while enjoying the coastline and incredible scenery. The journey is part of the adventure. Choose the equipment that best suits you and explore with experienced local guides who know these waters and help you feel comfortable from the moment you start paddling. Our small groups offer a more personal experience, with attentive guidance and time to enjoy the ocean, snorkel, and discover the marine life around Los Arcos at a relaxed pace. With no engines and no rush, you can hear the ocean, connect with nature, and discover this iconic marine area from water level instead of from a boat. An active, personal, and environmentally friendly way to explore one of Puerto Vallarta’s most spectacular natural landmarks—and a very different experience from a traditional boat tour.
