Angel- und Schnorcheltour in Puerto Vallarta und Nuevo Vallarta

¡¡Pasamos un día increible!! El paseo por la bahía estuvo muy bonito. Me encanto ver los peces al hacer snorkel y super divertido usar el kayak y paddle. Gracias a los chicos de la tripulación, Irvin, Luis, Joel, Francisco y Mario, super atentos todo el tiempo y la comida muuuy rica.

The views were so amazing, lots of fun snorkeling, paddle boarding, kayaking, and even jumping off the boat!! Their food was the best food I’ve had so far on this vacation too.

Where do I begin? I want this review to be as helpful as possible to someone considering this excursion so bear with me here. We used Mikes Fishing and tours last year so we kind of knew what to expect. Last year we were a much smaller group so we obviously required a much smaller boat. It was a little dated, but worked out perfectly. The captain was awesome and he had one hand. We had a great time. This time we had a much larger group (19) so we went in on the Florero Yacht and this boat was absolutely amazing. (Keep in mind that my family isn’t on and off yachts either) I fee like this boat could have held WAY more people too. The boat also came with the following: Capt- Antelmo who was extremely nice and allowed you to kind of create your own timeline of events. Really good guy. Chef- Francisco. I got sidetracked just watching him cut the ceviche from the fish we caught. It wasn’t just that he could cook but I didn’t expect to put as much into the food presentation as he did. Bartender Kevin- Kevin hustled around everywhere and was on top of everything. Even when we dropped anchor and were swimming he would jump into the ocean to deliver drinks ????. Cesar and Ruben held the title of service. Whether they were running around tending to things on the boat, overseeing the fishing, delivering food, etc. they made everything run smoothly and were extremely nice. Last but not least, Ed! He was the photographer and he just kind of moves around in the background taking pics as things organically occur. The photos and videos were natural memories, not “hey stop and pose” pics. Ed was an awesome guy and I hate when people are like, “do you want to buy the pics from your excursion?” But this was different. Even though we took our own pics, he was so great at what he did we had to buy his photo package, it was too good. Lastly a quick rundown. This isn’t a “fishing trip” It’s a boat trip that allows you to fish for a while enroute to snorkeling and swimming on gorgeous beaches. The hopes are for you to catch fish for the ceviche and give a little bit of a fishing experience, so anglers this isn’t for you. We booked a second trip with some of our family which is only fishing. Once you catch fish the chef prepares your food while you snorkel. Then you depart the snorkeling area and head to drop anchor at a remote beach where you will spend the rest of your time eating, drinking and swimming. The crew even allowed the kids to fish the whole way back to the marina. I can’t say enough about this group and the tour, obviously. Oh, and they didn’t slack on the amount of drinks or snacks, including plenty of sandwiches the whole time. Ok, I’m done ranting. Awesome trip, awesome people, 100% must do. Perfect for families, kids and grandparents.
