Las Vegas travelers are used to over-the-top experiences, and the Marietas Islands hold their own -- just with sea breeze instead of neon. A short flight lands you in Puerto Vallarta, and from there it's a quick drive to La Cruz de Huanacaxtle to board Rayando el Sol, our 47ft luxury catamaran built for private day charters of up to 16 guests. Think of it as the boat version of a VIP table: a dedicated crew, an onboard chef preparing a four-course gourmet menu, and an open bar stocked with premium spirits and handcrafted cocktails, all included. We sail out to the Marietas Islands National Park, a protected marine reserve famous for the Hidden Beach, accessible only through a short swim beneath a natural rock arch, with snorkel gear, paddleboards, and fishing rods on board for the rest of the day. Whether you're extending a Vegas weekend into something calmer or planning a bachelor or bachelorette trip with a very different pace, this is a short flight away from a completely different kind of memorable.
