The best beaches to visit by yacht from Vallarta
One of the great advantages of sailing from Puerto Vallarta is the enormous variety of nearby destinations. Many of these beaches are pristine and accessible only by sea. To discover the full list, check out our article on the best beaches in Puerto Vallarta. Below, we recommend the best options based on your group's style:
For families with children
The best option is Las Ánimas Beach, as it has calm waters, waterfront restaurants, and a safe environment for the little ones. Likewise, Colomitos Beach is perfect for swimming and snorkeling in shallow, emerald-colored waters.
For snorkeling and adventure lovers
In this case, The Arches of Mismaloya are the ideal destination. For example, among their rocky formations you can swim alongside colorful fish, sea turtles, and rays. Likewise, Majahuitas Beach features little-explored reefs where marine life is abundant.
For those seeking privacy and exclusivity
Without a doubt, Horse Beach and Paredon Beach are the best options. Both are surrounded by cliffs and pristine vegetation. In addition, since they’re relatively unknown to tourists, there’s a good chance you’ll have them almost entirely to yourself. On the other hand, Madagascar beach is another hidden gem, with crystal-clear waters and pristine nature between the sea and the jungle, perfect for those looking to completely disconnect.
For those who want to explore a pueblo mágico
On the other hand, Yelapa Beach is a completely different destination. It's a small coastal village where cars don't reach, giving it a calm, authentic, and very special atmosphere. In short, it's a must-stop if you want to experience the most genuine side of Vallarta.
Where do our vessels depart from?
The boarding point depends on the yacht you choose and the beaches you want to visit. However, the two main departure ports are Marina Vallarta and Boca de Tomatlán. The latter is the ideal starting point for exploring the southern beaches, since from there you reach Yelapa, Majahuitas, and Colomitos much faster, saving you both time and fuel.
Also, if you need a vehicle to reach the departure port or to explore the city before your outing, you can check our recommendations for car rentals in Puerto Vallarta so you can move around with total comfort during your visit.
