Review of Puerto Vallarta’s $135 Chica Locca catamaran to Quimixto, with meals, open bar, water sports, waterfall hikes, and practical tips.
“The staff was exception and really focused on making sure everyone had a great time. Our family was primarily interested in the hike to the waterfall and water activities. Unfortunately, the hike is an hour both ways and you need good walking shoes (which we did not have) The water activities offered are ok. The water was pretty rough and murky with lots of rocks. So, not a great snorkeling location. The food was great but not served until 2 pm. It has something for every interest - drinking, hanging out, or adventure or all of above.”
