Thanks to the beauty and depth of the Banderas Bay, Riviera Nayarit is one of the top scuba diving destinations in Mexico.
Visibility and ideal water temperature have made both experts and beginners fall in love with the Bay of Banderas waters.
Located in the mouth of Banderas Bay are the beautiful Las Marietas Islands, about 30 min from La Cruz de Huanacaxtle.
Formed by volcanic activity over thousands of years, the islands are a nationally protected bird sanctuary, also providing shelter for countless marine species.
