Marietas Islands Tour From Miami

Miami travelers hold a high bar for what counts as a luxury day on the water, and the Marietas Islands were built to meet it. After landing in Puerto Vallarta, it's a short drive to La Cruz de Huanacaxtle to board Rayando el Sol, our Tanna 47ft luxury catamaran with room for up to 16 guests. Unlike the crowded party boats you might expect on the Pacific side, this is a fully private charter: a dedicated crew, a private onboard chef preparing a four-course gourmet menu, and an open bar with handcrafted cocktails and fine wine. From there, we sail into the Marietas Islands National Park, a protected marine reserve famous for the Hidden Beach, tucked behind a natural rock archway and reachable only by a short swim. Paddleboards, snorkel gear, and fishing rods are all included, along with Starlink WiFi on board. For Miami travelers used to the Atlantic's brand of luxury, the Marietas Islands offer a quieter, more exclusive version on the Pacific side.
