Slip beneath Banderas Bay’s gentle surface and discover a protected reef haven at Las Caletas. With calm conditions, vibrant coral gardens, and expert guidance from a PADI 5-Star team, this ocean escape blends comfort, safety, and color-rich biodiversity. Accessible only by boat, it’s an elegant way to connect with Puerto Vallarta’s marine beauty.
Choose the path that suits you: certified divers enjoy two tanks with guided reef exploration, while newer divers begin with a required PADI Discover Scuba pool session before a one-tank ocean dive. Expect schooling tropical fish, garden eels, jawfish, puffer fish, eagle or manta rays, and, at times, graceful sea turtles—perfect for elevated Puerto Vallarta excursions.
Small-group supervision by professional PADI instructors; safety briefing and skills review; certified option (2 dives/2 tanks); beginner option (1 pool session + 1 dive/1 tank). Conditions are typically warm and clear, with calm currents ideal for confidence building.
Depart from Puerto Vallarta by boat to the secluded cove of Las Caletas. Along the bay, clear-day vistas may extend toward Nuevo Vallarta, Bucerías, and Punta Mita in Nayarit, and back along the south shore toward Mismaloya—naturally linking your day on the water with wider Mexico activities and tours.
Reserve early due to limited capacity. Certified guests should bring their certification card and recent dive history; beginners must complete the PADI Discover Scuba pool session prior to the ocean dive. Bring swimwear, a light cover-up, and reef-friendly sunscreen if permitted. Timing and sequence may adjust to sea conditions for comfort and safety.
Operated by licensed local professionals, this program emphasizes ethical practices and guest care while showcasing the region’s underwater heritage—an essential addition to discerning travelers’ lists of things to do in puerto vallarta.
