About Yelapa Escape and Snorkel

Enjoy a sea escape from Nuevo or Puerto Vallarta aboard the Los Veranos Canopy and Adventure Park Apex speedboat. You'll cruise along the coast to Yelapa, a charming fishing village south of the bay, where you'll explore its most iconic highlights.

The tour takes you to a snorkel spot south of the bay, home to a wide variety of marine life including lobsters, turtles, starfish, octopuses, and colorful fish. The location may vary based on weather conditions to ensure the best experience.

After snorkeling, you'll have free time to relax at Madagascar beach and enjoy a meal by the sea. On the way back, you'll make a brief stop at the Mismaloya arches for photos.
