As always, the team at Punta Mita Ocean Sports has a full array of exciting adventures, activities and experiences to make the most of your visit:
Announcing the 1st Annual Punta Mita Game Fishing Tournament
Our Riviera Nayarit region grew from small fishing villages to become one of the most exciting, luxury tourism destinations in the world, so it is no surprise that Banderas Bay attracts international anglers to experience some of the finest big game, competitive fishing in the world. Now, Punta Mita Ocean Sports is putting a luxury twist on competitive game fishing with their 1st Annual Punta Mita Game Fishing Tournament to be held Saturday, March 17th, from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm.
Open to all Punta Mita Club Members and their guests; it will be an ideal first tournament experience for beginners, with competitive action for serious fishermen. Fully equipped charter boats will take teams of three to four to fish shoreline or deep water, limited to 25-pound tackle or less. Weigh-in and photos will be at 12: 30 p.m. at the Sufi Ocean Club Jetty, followed by an Awards Luncheon at Sufito at 1:00 p.m. Registration is $180 USD per angler, including lunch. Tournament rules will be published in the week before the tournament.

Get Hookah’ed on a New Water Adventure
Punta Mita Expeditions wants to get your Spring off to an adventurous start with the coolest new aquatic experience – Hookah diving. A hybrid of snorkeling and scuba, Hookah diving, with the aid of a floating tank, allows you to breathe underwater, meaning you can explore underwater without any experience or scuba certification. Air tanks float at the surface, attached to divers by a 15-foot hose. A weight belt helps anchor you, giving you the freedom to explore like a scuba diver without the need to return to the surface for air, like a snorkeler. It’s an amazing new way to explore the beautiful reefs of Punta Mita, which are home to more than 100 species of fish.
As part of your Hookah dive experience, you will enjoy heading out to sea on one of Punta Mita Expeditions’ beautiful power boats, their luxurious catamaran which offers fresh ceviche and drinks, or the 82-foot Neptuno yacht which includes an onboard chef preparing a delicious meal. To complete your experience, dive-masters will guide you through your underwater journey and take GoPro photos, so you can take the memories home with you.
This unique experience is only offered in the bay by Punta Mita Expeditions, contact your Punta Mita Concierge for more information on these and other exciting watersports and expeditions.
