A visit to Puerto Vallarta is not complete without experiencing some time on the water. There are many types of harbor cruises and boat excursions both day and night, this elegant replica of a pirate ship being one of them. By day, you can enjoy the sights and participate in activities such as snorkeling, diving and exploring secluded beach locations accessable by boat – as well as participating in an onboard fiesta. For those desiring a different experience, consider sailing lessons or an extreme adventure on a racing sailboat. By night, explore the bay by moonlight, on a variety of evening cruise options.
