For many years the\u00a0Riviera Nayarit<\/strong>\u00a0was one of those places that were kept almost secret, in the shadow of Acapulco and Puerto Vallarta. In recent years the Riviera Nayarit has gained relevance as a tourist destination, not only nationally but internationally, competing alongside destinations such as\u00a0Cancun\u00a0or the\u00a0Riviera Maya\u00a0in Quintana Roo.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where is the Riviera Nayarit?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Riviera Nayarit Beaches\u00a0stretch for 307 kilometers on the Pacific, starting from Nuevo Vallarta, Nayarit, north of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, until reaching Boca de Tecap\u00e1n, adjacent to the State of Sinaloa. As you can see in this map of the Riviera Nayarit, the route is full of mangroves, wetlands, coastal lagoons, archaeological remains, magical towns, and ecological reserves such as the Sierra de Vallejo Biosphere Reserve, which is home to various endemic species; as well as the Isla Isabel National Park and the beautiful\u00a0Marietas Islands<\/strong>, all this between valleys, beaches and beautiful mountainous landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is here where the indigenous Huicholes or Wix\u00e1rika, as they call themselves, have lived for years. In fact, throughout the mountains and the coast of Nayarit, you can find\u00a0beautiful crafts<\/strong>\u00a0made of beads and colorful motifs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I recommend that you try the zarandeado fish in one of the restaurants on the beach, where the waves are strong. There are some small hotels and spas. Near here you can visit La Laguna Encantada, ideal for horseback riding and bird watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Las Varas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Here you can see the occasional turtle laying its eggs (please do not disturb them) or a whale having fun in the sea. Here some petroglyphs have been found that are exhibited in Zacualpan, a town 8 km away. Stay at sunset, I assure you it will be spectacular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are no large resorts yet, but there are plans to build golf courses, restaurants and elegant hotels with everything you need for your vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Punta de Custodio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Punta de Custodio is perfect for ecology lovers because most of its constructions claim to be of low ecological impact<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There is one of the most important turtle camps in the entire Riviera Nayarit, since every year thousands of turtles arrive to nest, which requires the presence of national and even foreign volunteers. It has an 8 kilometer long beach where you can practice surfing. Its atmosphere is totally familiar and its sea is calm, perfect for children, especially in Tortugas beach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you walk a little further north you will see a whimsical rock formation known as Isla Bonita, and on the other side Playa Platanitos, an excellent place to go to eat some good seafood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bahia de Matanchen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Do you want to feel at ease? This is a beach that is 7 kilometers long by 30 wide<\/strong>. Its sand is fine and its waves, unlike other areas, are moderate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can practice some water sports, savor excellent dishes such as zarandeado fish, and shrimp with garlic mojo, or walk, sunbathe, swim and enjoy the beautiful Mexican sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    San Blas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It has a good hotel infrastructure and some tourist attractions such as the Fort of San Basilio<\/strong>, founded in 1530; The Temple of Our Lady of the Rosary; de La Marinera built in 1769 and the Accounting Building from 1770 among others. Nearby is the La Tovara National Park, a protected natural area home to an important reserve of crocodiles and a reservoir of crystalline waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Further north is the town of Singayta where you can rent some tours on horseback, bicycles or kayaks to walk through the mangroves. And if you want to venture to the sea, visit Isla Isabel, an island of volcanic origin with beautiful beaches that today is a refuge for birds and is located about 70 kilometers away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Mexcaltitlan Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    It is said that this island was the first place where the Aztec civilization settled, some affirm that it can even be the legendary Aztl\u00e1n. It is a small island on which a picturesque town sits whose streets in the rainy season become navigable channels<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Visit its central square where there is a temple and a site museum. It is located only 36 km from Santiago Ixcuintla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Marietas Islands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    We could not leave aside the Marietas Islands, a group of islands located off the Riviera Nayarit some 112 kilometers from the coast<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These islands in 2010 were declared by UNESCO as a Biosphere Reserve, they are ideal for snorkeling, kayaking or swimming. Its waters are warm and crystalline and also the rock formations create spectacular landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As you will see there is a lot to do and see in the Riviera Nayarit<\/strong>, it is well worth spending more than 3 days in this area. For this, do not skimp on choosing a good hotel according to your plans, budget and the tourist attractions that you would like to visit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
