Visiting Sayulita and San Pancho - Which is the Better Mexican Beach Town?
Mexico is full of incredible beach towns and the West side of Mexico near Puerto Vallarta is known to have some of the best ones! Just one hour from Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita and San Pancho are popular beach towns that are accessible as day trips from the popular tourist destination of Puerto Vallarta. But here's the thing; Sayulita is well known and very commonly visited by holiday goers and surfers looking to catch some waves, but San Pancho is much less visited despite being just a 12 minute drive from Sayulita. This got us wondering, is Sayulita or San Pancho the better Mexican beach town?
Located in the Mexican state of Nayarit, Sayulita has become a very popular tourist destination thanks to it's epic surfing waves. The beach is lined with shops renting our surf boards and offering surf lessons to passers by. The influx of tourists has resulted in a huge increase in all other tourist-related infrastructure - there are tons of hotels ranging from bougie villas to cheap hostels, more cafes and restaurants than you can imagine, and beautiful shops selling all kinds of clothes, jewelry, and souvenirs. In this video, we visit Sayulita first and take our time walking around Sayulita Plaza and the main walking streets to see all the beautiful hand made goods and delicious foods that are available here. We check out Sayulita beach and have an unfortunate incident with Evie and our coffee, and then find a great lunch spot to have some fresh tacos on the side of the road.
After a short drive in the car, we make our way to San Pancho, which we quickly discover is much smaller than nearby Sayulita. There is just one main road in San Pancho, and it's lined with beautiful shops and restaurants just like the streets in Sayulita. At the end of the road you arrive at San Francisco beach, which is a much more peaceful experience than Sayulita beach (coffee incident aside). We toko our time enjoying a coffee with our toes in the sand and listening to a man play Journey songs on a flute before walking further down San Francisco beach to let Evie run around and play in the water.
At the end of the day, we loved both Sayulita and San Pancho. Both beach towns make a great day trip from Puerto Vallarta, but which one is best for you will depend on your travel style and whether or not you're looking to meet people. We hope you enjoy the video and find our comparison of Sayulita and San Pancho helpful in planning your own trip to these gorgeous Mexican beach towns!
