Great experience - We had a great day snorkeling with the salty boys. They took us out for about 2 hours with one hour of snorkeling. Most tours I’ve done you only snorkel for 15-30 minutes. We saw so many fish and other wildlife. The price is unbeatable cheaper than any other tours I’ve seen. A really great experience, highly recommend.

Great Experience - Very simple and easy tour. We brought our own snorkel gear, quick boat ride and jump in. We were allowed to swim and snorkel at our own pace very good outfit.

Amazing way to spend the day in vallarta - It was an amazing experience and we got super nice weather then all the fish and nature looked lovely! The captain and his partner were very friendly and were always attentive, swam with us and taught us fauna around the arches! I highly recommend this tour.

I loved this tour so much! Five star! - This trip was one of my best days in Puerto Vallarta and I’ve been here ten months! Can’t believe I didn’t do it sooner. My friend wanted to go snorkeling and I was afraid I’d be disappointed after living previously on the Caribbean side of Mexico. I was totally shocked at how amazing the snorkeling was here in the Pacific at Los Arcos. The Salty Dog crew met my friend and I at the bottom of the road on Mismaloya Beach and took us a short walk to the boat. It’s a short ten minute ride to the snorkeling location. The water was crystal clear and warm. The guide Johnny swam down about 15 feet and brought up a baby starfish for us to see. The caves, underwater caverns and colorful fish were just stunning. They took us to a beautiful beach afterward to swim and take pics. It was a beautiful day and we’re already planning to go again!

The best way to get to know Mismaloya - We loved the walk. The Guide was very Pro and kept an eye on us when we snorkeled. It's wonderful to see marine life so close

Don’t miss this tour! - We had an amazing time with Brian, communication was great and we met him with no problems. He took us out to Los Arcos which was beautiful. We got to snorkel and see some beautiful fish. We would highly recommend this more private tour with Brian, he is a Mismaloya native and we really enjoyed talking with him!
