I had a lot of fun seeing... - I had a lot of fun seeing the different beaches. Although the water was a bit murky to see any of the ocean life.

Excellent Tour, Highly Recommended - The catamaran tour to Yelapa and Majahuitas was an incredible experience. From the start, everything was super well organized. The catamaran was comfortable and the atmosphere very relaxed. We had access to drinks such as beer, rum, tequila and soft drinks throughout the tour, which made the trip even more enjoyable. One of the best parts was the visit to Yelapa Waterfall. The walk up there was short but great, and being able to take a swim in the waterfall was something unique. In Majahuitas, snorkeling in crystal clear waters was amazing, as well as kayaking and paddleboarding, total fun! The food was delicious, and although drinks on the beach were not included, we had everything we needed on board. The best thing was that we didn't feel rushed, we had time to enjoy everything calmly. If you’re looking for a relaxing, nature-filled tour, this is the one! Fully recommended.

Yelapa! - Second time taking a boat tour like this. An absolute blast. On the way there you stop before you get to Yelapa so you can swim, snorkel, kayak or paddle board. There was a manta ray, so that was cool. We went in February and the water was fine. I just jumped in and never felt cold. After the swim the bar is open. Yelapa was great, we did a guided tour to the waterfall, walking through town was pretty awesome. On the way back, if you keep saying yes, you will always have a drink on your hand : ) Thanks Brown Sugar.

Yelapa tour - Great tour of this fishing village! You can ride an ATV or mule to a waterfall. Beautiful little village. Gorgeous beach. Snorkeling at Majahuitas was good. Cold but good! See whales as well. Food was good.

Excellent - Must do trip - An excellent must do experience. The place is beautiful, the staff on board the vessel were awesome. They kept the supply of food and drink and entertainment coming. The only think I felt was not genuine was the snorkeling. The water was murky and very few fish could be seen

Ehhh - 11 HOURS! I've done this type of adventure about 4x now, and this was probably the worst one. Seemed disorganized in the beginning, extra fees everywhere, things are run down for the price. They focus on profit. The crew was nice and this young Diego boy was just going above and beyond. So he needs a raise! Yelapa itself was run down, no toilet seats, no napkins on my table. They advertise open bar but they dont open the bar until 3 hours into the cruise.

Day in the sun - The time is very loose if you are on a cruise ship, it will have to leave late. The snorkelling was very poor as water visibility was less than a metre and there was nothing to see. But fun people and tried to entertain on the way back. Meals were satisfactory.

Ok for younger tourists. - Staff speaks little English and feels like they do not care much. We also didn't like Yelapa beach. Water was cold and dropped deep fast, also not very clean. Food was OK. Beef was very hard to chew. Music on board was too loud. We are not coming back for this one. Also, if you have any mobility issues, I would suggest avoiding this tour. Getting to the beach require transfer to a smaller boat as well as getting back onboard.
