Playa Las Cuevas

Reviewed By Westcoaster2013 - Vancouver Island, Canada

It is so wonderful to walk along a path lined by palm trees and other foliage that offer a bit of shade on a hot day. Playa Las Cuevas connects with Playa Malpaso and in a lower tide it is easy to go around the sand by the rock bluff to get to Malpaso and then hike the length of that beautiful beach.

Playa El Borrego

One of San Blas' main beaches.

Reviewed By Sergio327 - Flores, Guatemala

The place offers clean sand, breeze and oncean, along with a good choice of restaurants and places to stay with a company or alone. The sunset watching is a must activity here. The place is suprizingly quite as there are no annoying sellers, even on the weekends.

Destiladeras Beach

Located between the cliffs of Punta del Burro, this beach is popular with sunbathers and surfers alike.

Reviewed By dbrunelle - Penticton, Canada

We stay in Bucerias but we love Destiladeras Beach better than anywhere. Up the coast a few minutes from La Cruz, it is easily assessible by bus if you do not have your own transportation. The best sand and wonderful for long walks. Food/drinks is available as well as chairs and umbrellas to rent.

Playa Chacala

Beach and village about 60 miles north of Puerto Vallarta.

Reviewed By 1_4_adventure - Calgary, Canada

Extremely clean and not very busy even on weekends (compared to any other beach in the state). Surf seems quite general but that depends on the wind and stage of the moon. Definitely worth a visit for an extended vacation.

Nuevo Vallarta Beach

Reviewed By 657JulieM - Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

We love the Nuevo Vallarta area principally for the beaches. You can walk for hours enjoying the peaceful atmosphere watching the sea birds catching fish and if you’re fortunate you can see momma sea turtles coming in to lay their eggs along with baby turtles hatching and making their way to the sea.

Playa los Muertos

Reviewed By V9490CTjenniferw - Denver, United States

We came here every morning with our 7 year old to check out tide pools, throw the football, and build sand castles. It was a great quiet beach with beautiful views. I’d highly recommend getting off the beaten path if you’re in sayulita.
