What is this about?

Originally made famous by Jacques Cousteau in the 1970's, the Marietas Islands Marine Reserve has now become one of the most popular areas in Western Mexico for scuba diving. Part of an underwater mountain range that peaks above the ocean's surface, the Marietas Islands mark the entrance to Banderas Bay from the Pacific.

With Vallarta Adventures beginner and certified divers can share an exciting day with friends and family who don't dive. On our Sunday thru Friday trips to the Marietas Islands, non-divers can spend the day sea kayaking or snorkeling while you enjoy exceptional scuba diving in the crystal clear waters of the Mexican Pacific.

    Wonderful! The dive site was beautiful. I should have taken some Dramamine and ended up sick before the dives. I did the first one and it was beautiful. My husband did both dives and said the second was the best one of the adventure. On the back, they stopped the boat for over a half hour so we could watch the pod of 11 humpbacks. We were given some great information about them. The crew gave us a great show that had everyone laughing and singing along.
