Local Treasures & Coastal Birds of Banderas Bay Discount Tickets

Overview

If you are visiting Puerto Vallarta and birds are your main interest, count yourself lucky! This paradise is home to nearly 350 species across diverse ecosystems. Recognized as one of Mexico’s top birdwatching destinations, the area offers frequent sightings of Golden-cheeked Woodpecker, Cinnamon Hummingbird, Green Jay, and Black-throated Magpie-Jay. We explore preserved tropical semi-deciduous forest on the outskirts of the city, then ascend to a scenic viewpoint overlooking Banderas Bay. The journey continues to coastal wetlands and mangroves at the mouth of the Ameca River, where resident and migratory birds gather. Led by expert biologist guides, this small-group, full-day experience includes binoculars, spotting scope, and a personalized species checklist. Perfect for beginners and experienced birders alike—join us and get hooked on birding!
