Sayulita Local Flavors

About this activity

Meet us at one of our designated meeting points in Puerto Vallarta and travel north in an air-conditioned vehicle toward Sayulita. Our first stop is a cacao garden, where you’ll learn about the cacao plant, its origins, legends, and traditional uses, followed by a tasting of tropical fruit and chocolate flavors.

On the way, we’ll visit a classic roadside fruit stand, once an essential stop on the long road between Tepic, Guadalajara, and Puerto Vallarta. Here, you’ll taste seasonal fruits and Mexican sweets.

In Sayulita, we’ll dive into local flavors: a crispy red-tortilla birria taco, a Nayarit-style marlin empanada, and refreshing aguas frescas before visiting Mary’s, a favorite small restaurant known for seafood tacos with bold local flavor.

We’ll walk through colorful streets and the artisan market, exploring Sayulita’s art, beach vibe, and connection to Wixárika culture. To finish, enjoy free time to shop, relax, or stroll by the beach before returning to Puerto Vallarta.
