Punta Mita Boat Tours from San Diego

San Diego has great beaches, but the water rarely invites you to stay in for hours. On a Punta Mita boat tour it does. Nonstop flights from SAN reach Puerto Vallarta in roughly three hours, and La Cruz de Huanacaxtle, the marina serving Punta Mita, is a short drive from the airport. That's where you board Rayando el Sol, our Tanna 47ft luxury catamaran, chartered privately for your group of up to 16 guests. Sailors and surfers from San Diego will appreciate the stability of a 7.7-meter beam and the freedom to choose your own pace: head out toward the Marietas Islands, drop anchor for snorkeling, try the underwater sea scooters, or lounge on the floating island while the crew handles everything. A private chef serves a four-course gourmet menu, and the open bar keeps the cocktails coming. The 3-hour sunset cruise for up to 12 guests is the perfect first evening after you land. If you visit between December and March, humpback whales often show up in the bay. It's the boat day San Diego almost gives you, finished properly.
