About this activity

**Paddle as a team aboard your giant Starship**

Forget about paddling alone.

Your giant paddleboard turns the journey into a fun and social experience where everyone works together while exploring the coast of Mismaloya.

**Experience Los Arcos at night**

Discover one of Puerto Vallarta’s most iconic natural landmarks from a different perspective, surrounded by the ocean and the silhouettes of the islands beneath the night sky.

**Swim in glowing water**

Experience the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence from the water. Move your hands and body and watch tiny marine organisms create flashes of light around you.

**A small-group, motor-free adventure**
