Oh! This place is absolutely stunning and one-of-a-kind, nestled among the karst rocks where the rarest birds on our planet make their nests. However, before you set sail, it's important to note that it takes a two-hour journey in each direction from the port of Puerto Vallarta. I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with all the details! This beautiful beach is protected by UNESCO, and access is not available every day of the week. Be sure to double-check and inquire, otherwise you'll find yourself simply floating around the rocks on a motor boat, pointing and saying, "Look! It's over there!" It might turn into an additional eco tour, which requires an extra payment. If you happen to visit on the right day and before the tour, the main speaker will announce where and when you'll board the ship, and you'll need to purchase your ticket at the port store beforehand, just like a towel, waterproof phone case, sunscreen, etc. These are important things to know! You can't simply sail there and relax on the beach with your towel, as bringing anything at all to the beach is strictly prohibited. Sunblock is also not allowed, and you can only stay on the beach for a maximum of 25 minutes. Enjoy! If you're visiting with a tour, be prepared to pay extra for transportation from the ship to the beach, even if your tour agent promised it was "all inclusive." It's not always the case! Overall, this place is truly unique and worth a visit for its incredible beauty. However, there are several small unpleasant moments that can detract from the magic. But for general knowledge and for creating TikTok and Instagram videos, where this place has been a top-viewed destination for many years, it's definitely worth a visit.

The island off the coast is absolutely stunning. The park rangers are in charge of regulating entry through the cave entrance by distributing helmets. It can be quite nerve-wracking to venture into the cave with the ocean currents tugging or pushing you towards it. Once the helmets are distributed, there is a limited time of 30 minutes.

This beach is absolutely amazing and definitely worth a visit. It's a must-see destination. Just keep in mind that you'll need to swim about 170 yards to reach the cave, so be prepared for that. It can be a bit tiring, especially if you're not a strong swimmer. The views all around the island are fantastic, and going on an excursion with (beachboy) was a great choice. They were fantastic. Plus, we even got to see whales as we approached the island. The one-hour trip is definitely worth it.
