Sail from Puerto Vallarta toward Rhythms of the Night

Your adventure begins with a scenic ocean cruise across Banderas Bay while the sun melts into the Pacific Ocean. Take in gorgeous views of Puerto Vallarta’s shimmering lights dotting the coastline on your way to Las Caletas, a cove known for its isolated beaches and unspoiled nature. As evening envelops you, catch sight of distant flickering torches guiding your vessel toward the secluded haven that hosts Rhythms of the Night.


Enjoy your own slice of paradise while you feast

As you step out of your boat and onto Las Caletas’ beach, a private paradise greets you with enticing aromas, sights and sounds. The light sea breeze gently moves the palm trees as you follow a torch-lit path, letting you discover re-enactments of ancient rituals and customs. As the first notes of music fill the air, the path leads you to where the magic of Rhythms of the Night takes place.

And while the waves lap the shore and a bright moon shines overhead, you’ll dine at a private beachside table with the soft glow of candles and stars. Savor a buffet selection of freshly prepared salads, steak, fish and chicken, all complemented with handmade corn tortillas. Trays of freshly cut local tropical fruit, pies, brownies and traditional Mexican rice pudding are also part of the menu. What are you waiting for? Dig in!


Experience Mexico’s culture with drum beats and dancing

After dinner, the mesmerizing beating of drums will draw you to a unique and wondrous amphitheater — an innovative pyramid built into the beach. Witness a spellbinding theatrical performance that sets itself apart from the typical folkloric or Mexican fiesta shows. Through dance and music, you’ll learn about the cultures that shaped the beautiful country of Mexico. As the movements and sounds carry on through the night air, Rhythms of the Night will wow you and leave you breathless.

End your lovely evening in paradise with a nightcap after the show and dance beneath the stars on the cruise back to the pier. No other evening in Puerto Vallarta compares to this unique experience.
