Day trip to Yelapa We took the All Inclusive Yelapa Waterfall tour. We were picked up at the Nuevo Vallarta dock. It was a fantastic and fun day! Ricky was an awesome tour guide and the staff on our boat were great fun! Food and drinks were non stop. Got to see some whales and dolphins as a bonus to the day. The waterfall was a little underwhelming but the village of Yelapa was an interesting little spot. Would have been really nice to be able to swim at the beach for a while there. Highly recommend the trip!.

Core memory made today! An incredible day on the Pacific Ocean! My family’s first time on the ocean and beach vacation and we wanted to do something special to remember our holiday. I don’t regret at all our decision to book this trip to Islas Marietas, with Boat #2 and Casper’s group. We saw so many humpback whales, dolphins and fish. It was espectacular! Everyone was so generous and kind and knowledgeable that my kids kept telling me all of the cool whale facts on the way back to the hotel. We’re not strong swimmers but the crew helped us all out very well and safety was always the priority. Thank you for a day that will surely be a core memory for all of us.

Lots of Fun and a little learning! The boat was clean, the food and drinks were good (and plentiful!). Crew was friendly, knowledgable, and very attentive. We saw dolphins, whales, and got to snorkle- it was a great trip and I will definitely go again.

Chic Locca team This is the second time I take a Chica Locca tour. The first, I took when I visited PV back in October. It was the Yelapa destination yacht tour with Ricky Ricardo as the host. It was great. The customer service was superb and tour was overall very fun and entertaining for myself and my group. The second tour I took was in early January 2025. It was the chica locca beach club tour with Isaias as the host. Isaias and all the other chica locca team members were great. Lunch was great and the team kept the drinks flowing which was awesome. We got to see a waterfall by taking an atv taxi ride from the beach club, cool experience. Unfortunately on the way back the yacht had some mechanical issues so we had to board a speedboat to return to the port. However, we got to a couple of whales that came right up to the boat. We were lucky to get the opportunity to see this. Overall, a really cool experience.

Amazing Boat Experience in Bahía de Banderas My family and I went on a private boat tour of the Bay (did not go to the Marietas but that was the only option TripAdvisor gave me), and I must say the team at Chica Locca is fantastic. We were incredibly lucky to see an entire pod of whales coming up to the surface and some breaching. Eduardo is an excellent guide and a great guy to hang out with; Oswaldo, the captain, piloted the boat carefully and effectively; and Ruben, our chef, made a fantastic sashimi style ceviche that blew us away. If you are considering hiring these guys for a private boat excursion, I could not make a higher recommendation. ¡Mil gracias por todo!

Fun beach The crew was very helpful and were entertaining and fun to be around. Great trip and fun time. They were ready to wait on us at any time and had a good attitude while doing it. Great service and they seemed to really care about us.

The very best family experience in Sayulita! Our family of 8 adults and two kids ages 7 and 9 took the boat tour and were amazed by the courtesy and professionalism of the entire crew. They moved the tour along at a perfect pace. We never felt hurried or pressured to do anything. They offered drinks and food during the trip just when we felt thirsty or hungry. The whale watching was just fabulous! Many breaches and tail flapping. The fun with the toys in the water and snorkeling worked out perfect. The size of the boat and passengers provided just the experience we wanted. All the amenities and not a booze cruise. Very tranquilo. Highly recommend.

A wonderful day out of La Cruz My husband, daughter, and I had the best time on this cruise. Alex and his team were outstanding. I have a small knee issue and got a little bit of extra assistance from Andreas. He was so caring and thoughtful. He made my whole trip. We loved the sights, boat, food, and drinks. This is totally worth the money and we would do it again! Thanks Alex!

Eduardo M

Awesome experience Had an amazing trip to the Marieta islands…It was a beautiful day and the boat was not very crowded so the crew decided more than once to let us decide what we wanted to do… the result?We were truly blessed with an incredible adventure as we all opted for more time exploring the bay on the return and were able to witness not one or two wales but two pods … one pod being hump back wales the other being Orcas!The crew was amazing…Jasmine, Luis and the rest of the crew went out of the way to make the day specialHighly recommend Chica Loca Tours…you will not be disappointed

Whale Watching Season is December 8th to March 23rd

We invite you to witness nature’s finest show while cruising aboard one of our mega yachts in the Banderas Bay. Winter consistently delivers perfect weather for cruising on the open water, viewing wildlife and sunsets you will remember forever.

From November to April the main attraction is our special winter visitors, the humpback whales. They call the protected waters of Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay home. They come here to breed, nurse their babies, and enjoy the tropical warmth and abundance, much like yourself. These gentle giants of the sea share the local waters with dolphins, turtles and rays.

Our expert guides will take you to all the spots the humpback whales call home.

Sunset and Whales Is an intimate experience with nature, best shared with those you love from the comfort of our luxury yacht.
