Setting Sail to Hidden Gems

The sun was just beginning to rise over the horizon as I boarded the boat at Puerto Magico, ready for a day of adventure and relaxation. The anticipation was palpable among the group, each of us eager to explore the hidden jewels of Yelapa and Majahuitas. As we set sail, the gentle rocking of the boat and the salty breeze set the perfect tone for the day ahead.

Our journey began with a scenic cruise past some stunning rock and cave formations. These natural wonders, teeming with birdlife and even a couple of playful rays, were a photographer’s dream. The crew expertly navigated us close enough to capture the perfect shot, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe at the beauty of nature.

The first stop was snorkeling, and despite the water being a bit murky, the vibrant marine life more than made up for it. Colorful fish darted around us, and for a brief moment, I felt like I was part of their underwater world. It was a refreshing start to what promised to be an unforgettable day.

Discovering Yelapa’s Charm

Arriving at Yelapa felt like stepping into a postcard. This quaint village, nestled between the rocks and mountains, exuded a charm that was hard to resist. The locals were warm and welcoming, and even the dogs seemed to embody the laid-back vibe of the place.

Faced with the choice of extra beach time or a hike to the waterfall, I opted for the latter. The hike was more of a leisurely stroll, taking us through the heart of the village. Vendors lined the path, offering handmade crafts at reasonable prices, adding to the vibrant atmosphere.

The waterfall, though modest in size, was a serene oasis surrounded by lush greenery. It was the perfect spot to pause and soak in the natural beauty. The crew was more than happy to capture the moment with a photo, ensuring the memory would last a lifetime.

Majahuitas: A Slice of Paradise

After a leisurely walk back to the beach, we were treated to a delicious lunch on the boat. The tortas were a highlight, with a variety of toppings to choose from, and the local cheesecake pie was a delightful surprise.

Our final destination was the exclusive Majahuitas Beach, a secluded paradise with turquoise waters and palm-fringed shores. Here, we had the chance to paddleboard, kayak, and even try a banana tube ride. The hour flew by as we reveled in the sun-soaked fun.

A word of advice: bring water shoes. The beach, though beautiful, was more pebbly than sandy, and the hot surface could be tough on bare feet. But with the right gear, it was easy to enjoy every moment.

As the day drew to a close, the crew entertained us with a lively lip-sync show, adding a touch of humor to the journey back. It was the perfect end to a day filled with adventure, relaxation, and the kind of carefree joy that only a day at the beach can bring.

For those looking to experience the magic of Yelapa and Majahuitas, this tour is a must. It’s a chance to escape the ordinary and embrace the beauty of Mexico’s hidden gems. Yelapa and Majahuitas Adventure
