Luxury Azimut Yacht Charter in Bahía de Banderas — 4-Hour Private Cruise

The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated and fed
Eat a light meal beforehand and drink water—the sun and salt air dehydrate more quickly than you expect.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect marine life and your skin by applying reef-safe SPF and reapplying after swimming.
Motion-sickness prep
If you’re prone to seasickness, take preventative medication or use acupressure bands before embarkation.
Secure valuables below deck
Keep phones and cash in a dry locker or soft waterproof case; the salon is shaded but not sealed.
