US citizens need to have an original & signed passport and it should have at least six months of validity; this means any person needs to hold a passport that expires in more than six months. The six month passport validity rule is enforced because the government does not want to risk having travelers and tourists overstaying their passport validity.
Those under 18 years of age traveling alone or with only one parent or with someone other than the child's parents, must show a notarized letter of permission signed by the parent/parents not traveling. In the case of a single parent traveling with a minor, a certified copy of the divorce decree and court order showing sole custody, certified copy of birth certificate naming one parent, a notarized copy of a death certificate or other legal documents proving custody or guardianship are necessary.

Keep in mind that you may be closer to the equator in Sayulita than where you live, so the sun is more intense and you will burn faster. Make sure to use a sunscreen with a high SPF, and reapply often if in the water or sweating.
If you have the UBER app on your cellular, you can order an UBER! Although just be aware that requesting an Uber at the airport is slightly more complicated because taxi drivers are still creating troubles if they found out an UBER arrives into the airport! So one way is to cross the pedestrian bridge to wait for the UBER (in front of the airport) or to take a regular cab/taxi at the airport and just using UBER to travel inside the city/town.
While US dollars will be accepted by most stores and vendors in Sayulita, most of the time it will be at an exchange rate that is definitely not to your advantage, so plan on working with Pesos. Money Exchanges located at the airport and at Intercom Banco within Sayulita.
