- Parque Nacional Marino Los Arcos de Mismaloya - Situated off the coast of Mismaloya, south of Puerto Vallarta, Los Arcos Marine Park stands as one of the region’s most renowned natural wonders. Named for its granite rock formations resembling arches and tunnels, it hosts a diverse array of marine life.
During the day, it is a premier snorkeling destination featuring coral reefs and volcanic structures. At night, this enchanting location unveils a rare spectacle: bioluminescence.
This phenomenon occurs when tiny organisms known as dinoflagellates emit a glowing blue light as the water is disturbed. On dark, tranquil nights, the glow becomes visible around the boat—and even more mesmerizing when swimming, illuminating with every movement.
Los Arcos is among the few nearby places where one can safely witness this in a protected marine area. It offers a unique chance to connect with nature through a luminous sea.
- Mismaloya - Mismaloya is a picturesque beach just south of Puerto Vallarta, nestled between the mountains and the ocean. Renowned for its serene, clear waters and lush surroundings, it serves as the ideal starting point for ocean adventures and nature-centric experiences.
Famous as the filming location for The Night of the Iguana, Mismaloya is also a short distance from Los Arcos Marine Park, a top snorkeling and diving destination in the area. From this quaint beach, visitors can embark on unique experiences such as snorkeling, cliff jumping, whale watching, fishing, and bioluminescence tours. Its natural beauty and local charm make it an unforgettable gateway to the bay.
