This isolated spot is located on the southern shore of Bahia de Banderas, Puerto Vallarta. It can only be reached by boat.
The coast is quite craggy and the jungle is thick. These factors contribute to keeping the surroundings nearly intact.
On the Puerto Vallarta beach, hammocks sway under shady palm trees. Just a few steps ahead is a tropical world to be discovered.

Beaches were Puerto Vallarta, Mexico's main attraction for years. Visitors today are exploring more of the surrounding landscape. But the sands are still a powerful magnet.
Over 42 km (26 mi) of beaches loop around the broad Bay of Banderas. They range from action-packed party spots to secluded coves accessible only by boat.

Visitors can also enjoy:

• Kayaking
• Taking a yoga class
• Hiking through surrounding trails
• Relaxing in the hammocks strung between palms on the beach

Caletas offers tempting facilities and relative privacy. These aspects have made this excursion one of the most popular. The evening cruise to Caletas includes:
