Springtime is Perfect for a Sayulita Mexico Vacation

Spring Vacation in Sayulita on the Beautiful Riviera Nayarit

I always find it amazing how many folks leave during the spring on the Riviera Nayarit in Mexico. The weather is perfect as the day temps are in the low 80′s, with the evenings still a little cooler around the mid 60′s. and the flowers and trees that are blooming are amazing in Sayulita. The Sayulita streets and the Sayulita Town Square have been torn apart and new and more tourist friendly streets have been put in making Sayulita better than ever to come for your Sayulita vacation. Another reason that I feel springtime is a wonderful time to visit Sayulita is for the surfing of course! The crowds are dissipating on the beaches and in the town making swimming and surfing and shopping and eating a more enjoyable and less crowded experience. Another great thing about coming to the Riviera Nayarit in the Spring are the lower rental rates! Check out Casa Terramar or Villa del Moro for some great rental choices.  Some shops are closing this next week, as folks leave for the summer months, but there are plenty of shops and galeries that are still open like Pachamama, or you may want to play a good game of chess at Chess&Snacks, or try these restaurants that are open all year like Tequilas Bar and Grill  (come and watch your favorite game on their big screen TV’s) located before the bridge or O Restaurant right on the south end of the beach for a water front breakfast lunch or dinner.  You may also feel like a tasty margarita and a great taco or nachos at Aaleyah*s Nachos y Wings just around the corner from the plaza, or perhaps Captain Cook Restaurant while you are relaxing right on the beach.

Check out a Chica Locca Tour

Touring companies like Chica Locca Riviera Nayarit Magical Tours is open for business all season and it is a great time aboard the Chica Locca! With their trips being all inclusive, from your travel to the La Cruz Marina, a breakfast and lunch, and a full open bar…snorkeling and kayaking and paddle boarding; you can leave everything to the Chica Locca staff! It’s a great time for the entire family. The Chica Locca staff is bi-lingual and they are also very informed about the marine life in Banderas Bay. It will be one of the best days of your vacation!

During the spring and hot summer months, Sayulita and the Riviera Nayarit makes for a more authentic Mexican experience.  Sayulita is also a great place to come for a long weekend get-away if you are living in Puerto Vallarta (only about 35 minutes)  or Guadalajara (about 3 hours). Enjoying an ocean breeze and getting some surfing in or going on a tour in the spring and summer months is a wonderful weekend experience.

Happy Semana Santa Sayulita Mexico!

Semana Santa Sayulita Style

Happy Semana Santa and Happy Easter to all of our advertisers and viewers from the crew at RivieraNayaritFun.com and all of our town websites AllSayulita.com, AllSanPancho.com, AllLodeMarcos.com, AllGuayabitos.com, AllLaPenita.com and AllChacala.com.
No matter what your religion, Semana Santa and Easter day allow all of us on opportunity to be more caring and heart centered with our friends and families, creating a group vibration that spreads the love around town and the planet. So Enjoy and embrace the holiday Sayulitans!
Happy celebrating and many blessings!

Samena Santa all starts with a week long celebration on the Riviera Nayarit, with beaches filled with familia and friends, laughing and dancing until the early hours of the morning, with this last weekend raising the roof!
The Mexicans really know how to have a lot of fun, as they love to play, and love to dance to the very loud music! They love everything LOUD! lol….One of the reasons the I adore the Mexican culture, is their sense for love for their family. Everyone from the very oldest to the little babies come to the different beach towns on the Riviera Nayarit to celebrate life. I love to watch them play, and dance to the brass bands on the beach, throw sand at each other and eat and party, and of course, surf!  If you like Mexican culture, Easter week, or here in Mexico is known as Semana Santa,  is the time to come immerse yourself in the wonderful Mexican culture.

Holy Week

In the religion Christianity there is the last week of Lent, and the week before Easter. It also includes the religious holidays of Palm Sunday, Maudy Thursday or Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday. It, however, does not include Easter Sunday. There are variations of the Christian Religion, and each day has a specific meaning, with certain rules. Easter Sunday, which immediately follows Holy Week, is the great feast day and apogee of the Christian liturgical year: on this day the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is celebrated.
Easter Sunday is the first day of the new season of the Great Fifty Days, Easter-tide, there being fifty days from Easter Sunday to Pentecost Sunday.

The starting point for Semana Santa’s extensive history is the death of Christ, but the celebration that we see today on the Riviera Nayarit in all of Mexico is the result of centuries of evolution.  And, on the Riviera Nayarit, it is one big party and celebration with live music going until 4:00AM and campers spread out over the beaches and filling the RV parks, bombs going off (something about the spirits) and fireworks. Everyone shares space and is quite friendly from my experiences. Its also a great way to practice your Spanish!
Its a fun time to dive into the Mexico culture as Mexicans come to the Riviera Nayarit from all over Mexico for their Semana Santa vacation.

Enjoy your Easter Celebration with love and joy in your hearts, and I’ll see you later on the Riviera Nayarit in beautiful Mexico.

Visit the Riviera Nayarit for your Mexico Vacation, relocate to Mexico for life!

Sayulita has Whale Watching Tours

Sayulita is home to many tour companies that can take you out onto Banderas Bay looking for Whales.

Living at Los Compadres Resort on the hill overlooking La Peñita de Jaltemba, I often look out at the Jaltemba Bay. The other day I saw a couple whales breaching the water out by the island. I decided it was time to get out on a boat and see them up close. I went out with Gil on the Chica Loca from Riviera Nayarit Adventures in Sayulita.  They launch their trimaran from the marina in La Cruz.

Puerto Vallarta Banderas BayDual whale tales seen in Banderas Bay during full moon Feb 2012

A Mexico vacation is considered as the top tourist destination in Latin America and currently the tenth place in the world. Areas such as the Riviera Nayarit are teeming with historical sites, rich culture, and exciting attractions that many people, even the locals, have come to enjoy and love. Although this country is renowned for its iconic monuments and dazzling white beaches, there is one thing that you must try especially when you happen to visit this colorful nation between the months of January and March. It is called whale watching.

tour boatWhale watching has become a celebrated tourist activity especially in the Mexico Pacific where these big cetacean mammals usually show themselves off shore, proudly spouting water from the blowhole above their heads while flapping their huge tails against the sea surface. Not too many people are fortunate enough to see real live whales in person and witnessing this kind of whale action can certainly lead you breathless and in awe.

Whale watching season usually starts on November and ends at the last week of March. However, January and February are the best months for you to get a glimpse of these species (particularly humpbacks and gray whales) in Banderas Bay and Matanchen Bay. If you want to have a more memorable experience by closely interacting with these gentle giants, then you might want to try whale watching in Jaltemba Bay. In here you will find shallow waters where gray mother whales take care of their calves. You can touch and see them eye-to-eye, thus giving you an amazing experience that you will never forget.

There are daily whale watching tours and overnight excursions that are readily available for you to choose from during these months. These tourist companies will not give you a guarantee for whale sightings, but you will have better chances (usually nine out of ten tours) when you visit the Mexico Pacific at the end of January to early March.

There are some reminders that you need to watch out for as soon as you have decided to try whale watching at the sunny beaches of Mexico. There are several types of whale watching tours that is suitable to all kinds of tourists. If you are doing this with your kids, you need to choose a day tour where you would spend less time in the water and more time on the ground. If you are a whale specialist, then interacting with the whales will be more suitable for you so you might want to select the kind of tour that enables you to get near them.

Book a trip to Sayulita and take a Sayulita Whale Watching Tour in Banderas Bay.
