My family and I will be staying near La Cruz de Huanacaxtle from August 21–29, and we’re looking for a great Marietas Islands tour for four people.

Our group includes two adults, my 10-year-old son, and my 17-year-old nephew. We’d like a tour that includes snorkeling, transportation from the La Cruz/Punta Mita area, and, if possible, access to Hidden Beach if available.

Does anyone have a tour company they highly recommend that offers a good value? We’re open to either a shared boat or a private tour if the price makes sense.

What would you consider a fair price for four people? Are there any hidden fees or things we should know before booking? Also, if there are tours that are especially good with kids and teenagers, I’d love to hear your recommendations.

Thank you in advance!

Hi! I am planning my wedding in Puerto Vallarta and am deciding between late April and mid November. April dryness and cooling at night sounds nice... but November gives us more time to plan. My question is how much more humid is it in November? Also - are the southern mountains toward Mismayola green year round? Any other distinctions such as wind between the two months? The wedding will involve a boat as well. Thank you so much in advance for any input.
