Puerto Vallarta Adventures Las Caletas Beach Hideaway Recommendations:

• Bug spray and sunscreen (biodegradable and organic preferred)
• Bottle of water
• Comfortable hiking shoes or sports sandals
• Bathing suit and sarong or towel
• Change of clothes (optional)
• Camera
• Extra cash for additional food, beverages or souvenir purchases (please note: this is a remote location and they do not always accept credit cards if the internet signal is not working properly)

Children: Children are welcome, however we recommend them in good physical condition and previous hiking experience. During the dry season, there is less shade so the hike can be a bit demanding for young children.

Cruise Ship Passengers: We are happy to accommodate cruise ship guests even if your ship does not arrive on a Tuesday. Let us know your ship itinerary and we can look into adjusting the start or return times to fit your time in port.

Restrictions: There are no real age restrictions, but for any hiking tour, it is best that you are in good physical condition. As in most places in the world, hiking takes you to remote locations that do not allow quick access to medical services. This hike has about 3 steep inclines that last only a few minutes each, the rest of the trail runs more or less along the coast line. We go at your pace; so as long as you can navigate some moderately challenging terrain, this hike in Puerto Vallarta is open to you.

Insider Tip: We recommend good sturdy shoes, but there are several places where you may want to stop and take a break at a small hidden beach cove, or have to cross a small stream, so sports sandals may be the best choice. The place where we stop for the beach break is shortly before the main part of Las Animas where all the big catamarán tours bring hundreds of tourists daily. We even have our own little cove away from any other guests at Casitas Maraika where they set up large umbrellas, cushioned loungers. We will provide you with a plate of delicious appetizers, but we strongly recommend bringing extra cash to try out some of the other fresh options they offer out there. Simply amazing! Also amazing between October and March is the Military Macaws that hang out in the trees behind the casitas. If you are a bird lover, bring your binoculars!!
