Recreational Activities
Deep sea fishing, scuba diving and seasonal whale watching are among the many pleasures of Mexico's west coast. In both Punta Mita and Puerto Vallarta, the best diving and snorkelling lies along the Banderas Bay coastline, while winds and ocean currents at the northern tip of Bahía de Banderas create a challenging environment for sailing.
The Resort beach services centre provides water-sports equipment for various activities, including coral-reef snorkelling.
Other outdoor activities at Four Seasons Resort, Punta Mita include ruin hikes and historical tours, as well as walks along the beaches of Riviera Narayit and excursions into Puerto Vallarta.
