Las Caletas Beach is an isolated jungle-clad green canopy enveloped cove with lots to do. You can get there during daylight with the Las Caletas by day tour and at night with Rhythms of The Night. Once you arrive you can enjoy relaxing in hammocks by the sea, having a drink in the many small bars along the edges of the beach while being pampered by the friendly and attentive staff. Other options while you are there include kayaking, scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming with sea lions, paddle boarding, guided nature walks. There is a wonderful hilltop spa, there's an Orchidarium, Aviary, Deer Sanctuary, Yoga, Cooking lessons, pottery classes, zip-lining into the sea. Las Caletas water-slide offers a rush down the hill into the sea, there's an area where you can have a close-up experience with sea life, including manta rays and more. Las Caletas was for some time the home of the famous Irish-USA Hollywood director John Huston before it became Las Caletas Vallarta Adventures, he lived here for many years until his health forced him to a location closer to health support. The Las Caletas Tour starts off at the Puerto Vallarta API harbor in the northern limit of the Hotel Zone, where the cruises arrive too. You'll need to pay a reasonable port tax (I think it was a dollar or two) and you'll get into the piers. Snorkeling Las Caletas is great, the water is clear and warm and there are lots of fish very close to the edge and further in. You'll find colorful fish hiding in the coral-covered rocks and all kinds of urchins, crabs and more in the deeper areas. Las Caletas Cabo Corrientes tour is a great little day trip of young couples and families with younger kids, the various activities will make the trip one of the most memorable on your Puerto Vallarta trip.
