A Low Key Vacation Spot: Sayulita, Mexico

in #travel8 years ago (edited)

The word about Sayulita is spreading like wildfire. Once a tranquil fishing village, today Sayulita is fast becoming one of Mexico’s hottest vacation spots. The charming little and still underdeveloped town has captured the hearts of many and attracts tourists looking for a low key destination and, even more so, great swell for surfers of all kinds.

There is not much to do in Sayulita, which is actually the most interesting part. This town is for the low maintenance, rustic, informal, and peaceful traveler. You come here to disconnect, eat wonderful tacos al pastor and lay down beach or poolside without an agenda. Unless, of course, you’re looking to surf, in which case you’re up early and always aware of the ocean conditions.

The first few adventurous travelers that “found” this place over 20 years ago, keep returning every year. The locals are an actual mix of people who were born here and foreigners that now call this place home, which are more than a few.

As in every other tropical location, the seasons in Sayulita are divided by rainy and dry season. The rain starts mid-June and goes until October or November. This is when most of the foreigners leave town to enjoy the summer somewhere else, so many of the local spots are closed or have lower service frequency. It’s also when the weather is the most inclement and the temperatures can reach 40ºC (104ºF). It’s still hot the rest of the year, but during this time, you can be sweating like crazy while standing in the shade.
