Only 116 persons by day are permitted to get into the hidden beach. Because in Eco Explorer we have more boats with permits than other providers, we have more spots available per day for this activity. 96% of our visitors get into the beach. As a commitment with conservancy, the park has been declaring a free of plastic islands, so it´s good idea to bring your own water container. Our boats are fast, comfortable, and safe, our guides know perfectly how to assist you on the boat, during the in-water activity and hidden beach access. The information provided by our staff and their experience is unvaluable. Hidden beach access is available from Wed - Sun only. Deposit (25USD) of hidden beach is not refundable if you do get to swim to it. (Because of bad weather conditions or spots not available). We also offer a private option up to 4 pax, this option offer more chances to access to the beach. This tour focuses on snorkeling, bird watching and getting to know our beautiful islands.

We had a beautiful boat ride with birds flying and diving on the way. Our guide, Rodrigo, was very informed about the area and eco system of the islands. We had a nice swim, saw some fish, and enjoyed our time!

We had great time. Our guide was amazing and we enjoyed the boat ride a lot. The islands are gorgeous but the swim to the beach can be tough depending on currents. Also, be aware that there are jellyfish. Both my daughter and I got stung quickly after we jumped into the water. It's a quick 30 min visit (15 ish min at the beach) to Marietas island.

The trip was okay, but the itinerary is a little misleading. You will get on the boat and it will feel like you’re on a YMCA trip based on the crowd and the entertainment - do not go if you are in Mexico to get away from American/westernized culture. You’ll be required to wear a life vest when snorkeling, you will swim off the boat to the site but are required to be picked up 10 at a time by a smaller vessel. After snorkeling there is a build your own sandwich bar with cold cuts, salad, and potato salad. You’ll eat while you drive past a small island and learn a little about the blue footed boobies. From there you go to a beach club where you can swim, paddle board and banana boat (if you can successfully cut the line or beat other tourists there). On the way back from the beach club there is a cheesy lip-sync performance to Michael Jackson and/or Beyoncé. Finally, they advertise open bar, this is false. They will begin serving strong margaritas and beer once everyone is complaining after the snorkeling so you have some fun towards the end, but don’t expect to choose what you drink or when.
