Navigating Las Caletas Beach
To get to Las Caletas Beach from Puerto Vallarta or Nuevo Vallarta, book a tour with Vallarta Adventures and sail with our expert guides. The beach is private so only our boats are allowed to dock there. Your trip to Las Caletas beach is completely customizable, so you can pick and choose from a variety of activity options, making it the best beach day for the whole family. You can even add on activities at the gift shop once you arrive. The Beach Club and gift shop are located in the center of the stretch of beach, with paths branching off to different activities.

Tips for Travelers
