Return Details

Returns to original departure point
Depart from Puerto Vallarta Marina on a stylish vessel to begin your sublime sail into the sunset. Cruise across the calm waters of Banderas Bay to the serene and secluded cove of Las Caletas; feel your feet sink into the soft sands of the beach as you disembark the boat and awaken your senses to the entrancing setting. Watch torches flicker, hear the waves lap the shore and listen to melodious music permeate the air as you take a torch-lit path to your dining destination.

Take a seat at your beachside table and enjoy the ambience of the candle-bathed scenery; select from sizzling steak, freshly caught fish or succulent chicken, all of which come accompanied by fresh vegetables, crisp salads, and handmade tortillas. Delve into a delicious dessert buffet after your main, pleasuring your palate with tropical fruits, indulgent brownies, and locally inspired rice pudding.

Let the pulsating beat of native drums summon you to the outdoor amphitheater, the sacred space in which the spectacular show is to unravel. Hypnotic and hallucinatory, the incredible performance is sure to leave you spellbound; watch in wonder as stories of ancient civilizations are depicted through dance and music, marveling at the astounding agility of costumed contemporary dancers.

Relax beneath the sparkling stars during your return journey to Puerto Vallarta, where the enchanting evening concludes.

You won't be disappointed!

It's difficult to even describe this excusrions. It's an experience you will never forget. We even upgraded to VIP and the money was so well spent. Service, ambiance, the show...all top-notch! They can charge a lot for this trip because it's worth a lot. As soon as it had concluded, I said...let's do it again! "Ricky Ricardo" and the boat staff also do an amazing job if entertaining both on the way out and back! You won't be disappointed with this excusrions!!

Was about to deduct a point because it was extremely humid and hot, almost detracting from the experience but thats not in their control/their fault. The way they set up the island was beautiful.. romantic even- with candles everywhere lighting your way and little lights in the trees. The show was really good, the food in the buffet was tasty and hot. Everything was organized well!! I just didnt like that dinner was so late, i think we ate at 10-10:30pm. The boat host Isa was entertaining on the hour long ride to and from Las Caletas. Recommended excursion!

The show was most excellent. the entertainment kept you on your toes and we very professionally done. The show was more then I had expected and as good as I have seen on a destination tour. They literally blew my mind with their acrobatic feats and outstanding dancing and vocal abilities. the fire show and the so many other elements make it a must do when in Puerto Vallarta.
