What To Expect

Start your day in the Romantic Zone of Puerto Vallarta. We will meet to take an urban truck (30 min) to the picturesque fishing village of Boca de Tomatlan. From there, we will sail 20 minutes in the characteristic panga boats where we will see dazzling beaches towards Quimixto, a beach surrounded by nature.

Upon arrival, we will walk 25 minutes along a tropical trail, through the picturesque village to the Quimixto waterfall, where you can cool off in its crystal clear waters and learn about the local biodiversity with our guides. We will return to the beach to participate in a traditional cooking class led by local cooks. You will learn how to prepare fresh ceviche and guacamole with regional ingredients, while enjoying a refreshing drink.

After class, relax on the beach in a bunk bed or swim in the calm waters of the bay. At the end, we will take the panga back to Boca de Tomatlan and the truck to Puerto Vallarta.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Coastal Adventure in Quimixto : Hiking and Cooking Workshop?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
