Spend a day soaking up the scenery and the surf-town atmosphere of sunny Sayulita, an artsy village known for its beaches. After a guided tour of the town, spend some free time on your own swimming, lounging, or grabbing a bite to eat at a lively local restaurant.

Get picked up from your hotel in Puerto Vallarta and set off in the direction of Sayulita, whose consistent waves and balmy waters are a lure for surfers, artists, and general fun-seekers alike. Tour the town with your guide to get a sense for its idyllic charm and authentic Mexican character, picking up tips from your guide on great beaches to check out and restaurants to visit.

After that, the rest of the day is yours to spend as you see fit. Pop into modern shops and galleries, linger over a drink at a fun bar in town, or slap on some sun cream and hit the beaches. Pass through a colourful cemetery to reach quiet Playa de los Muertos, snorkel in the calm waters of Carricitos, or linger over a delicious meal as you take in the view at the beaches of Patzcuaro and Patcuarito.
