Best trip in Mexico 100p - Ricky was the boss. This was the best. We went swimming, went to a small town. Lots of free drink. It was amazing. I would recommend to anyone.

Great time! - So nice and relaxing. Good food and drinks. (All the drinks you want.) Staff were extremely attentive to your needs. I loved the stand up paddle boarding. Visiting the island was very cool.

Don’t miss the Marietta Islands with Chica Locca! - I recommend this tour with Chica Locca whole-heartedly for a number of great reasons. The Marietta Islands are beautiful and pristine, and the Tour makes them completely accessible without harming the environment in the least. Everything about the boat, the staff, the amenities, was perfect. Whether you are a birdwatcher, a swimmer and or snorkeler, young or old (I’m 79 and I had a blast!), you cannot go wrong with this tour and this company.

Lovely day on the water! - Had a great time on this boat tour! The staff was attentive and made sure we had drinks in hand to enjoy. Not too much to see in the snorkel part, but a lot of fun to swim or paddle board after the beach visit. The person taking photos, also known as “Mamarazzi” on the boat, did an incredible job! Her photos are our favorite thing from the trip. *Make sure to reapply sunscreen after swimming and bring some motion sickness meds :)

Incredible Islas Marietas - Excellent tour, the crew service is amazing, the food is very good and the Islas are an amazing natural spot to visit. We could even do stand up paddle very close to a whale!

The reviews don't lie! - I booked this trip for my family of 4 (our kids are 14 and 16) based on the stellar reviews. It was, as promised, a perfect day and so easy. Great food and drinks, incredible service, we had the chance to try all the water toys and even took a few trips down the water slide. If you are looking for an easy, fun way to spend the day, book the trip!

Worth it! Cool experience but try to go on a day without wind! - The staff was super attentive and kind. The bathroom left a little to be desired but... no big deal! We went on a windy/choppy day so that was hard for some folks (sea sickness) and the music was really loud the whole time which might be hard if you're ill. Otherwise, pretty cool trip! We skipped snorkeling bc the water was really rough. We had photographers on the boat with us and they were so kind and snapping away always and we bought the photo package for $60 and I'm glad we did. For $100/person, food and drink and snacks at no extra charge, amazing experiences... totally worth it!

Yeah fine. But wouldn't repeat. - Crew was great - very friendly, and they went above and beyond (more on that later) to help us celebrate a friend's birthday. Meeting in Sayulita was fine, but the guy there was handling another tour before ours and was maybe a little gruffer than necessary in telling us to wait 15 min (maybe they need a sign, or alternate meeting area?). The bus ride was fine, no issue. I loved that we embarked almost immediately upon arriving to the boat. A little rough going out, so we had a few people with pretty decent seasickness. It was a longer haul out to the Marietas than I expected, but perhaps I just didn't have the right expectation. I was also a *little* surprised that we took the little skiff in to the beach and then swam the last 40 yards in - be prepared!! I don't remember reading about that in the intro email, and I think one of our group was surprised by that. It was difficult for her to get out of the skiff and into the water (she's a little more on the plus side). The beach was small and basic - but we did see the blue-footed boobies, as promised. Almost seemed staged that they were right there on the rim of the cliff, but whatever. Overall, I think our group had a good time. One of us was especially enthralled as she doesn't often do adventurous things like this apparently. She took advantage of the waterslide, snorkeling, swimming, etc. So good for her! Otherwise, it was a basic boat ride. Food was bland, which must be expected for something like this. Maybe they should offer hot sauce bottles or packets? One of the crew did a little lap dance for our birthday girl, mercifully short. And same for another birthday girl on our tour. That was a little weird - I think she appreciated the effort. Luckily there weren't any kids on our trip. Just seemed odd.

No secret beach access on Mondays and Tuesdays. - Without given access to secret beach it’s a very mediocre experience. Secret beach access is only available on Wednesday through Sunday. Monday and Tuesday would be a waste of money.
