Sail Vallarta, Club de Tenis Puesta del Sol, Local 7-B, Marina Vallarta (tel. 322/221-0096; fax 322/221-0097; gallonavarro@aol.com), offers a variety of sailing vessels for hire. A group day sail, including crew, use of snorkeling equipment, drinks, food, and music, plus a stop at a beach for swimming and lunch, costs $82. Most trips include a crew, but you can make arrangements to sail yourself. Prices vary for full boat charters, depending on the vessel and amount of time. Vallarta Adventures (tel. 866/256-2739 toll-free from the U.S., or 322/297-1212, ext. 3; www.vallarta-adventures.com) offers two beautiful sailboats for charter or small-group sails (up to 12 people). The service is superb, as is the quality of the food and beverages. These are known as the boats that are most frequently under sail -- many other sailing charters prefer to motor around the bay.
