Things To Do
Bucerías
On an uninterrupted coast of more than 18 miles, Bucerías is known for its scenic streets, people from all over the world, and delicious Mexican cuisine. This is the diverse and vibrant community that Human Connections calls home.
Puerto Vallarta
Puerto Vallarta is a resort town on Mexico’s Pacific coast, in Jalisco state. It is known for its beaches, water sports and nightlife scene. Its cobblestone center is home to the ornate Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe church, boutique shops and a range of restaurants and bars. El Malecón is a beachside promenade with contemporary sculptures, as well as bars, lounges and nightclubs. Puerto Vallarta has some of the best restaurants! Definitely worth a visit to try some food.
Punta Mita
Punta Mita Mexico was originally home to artisans, merchants, and fishermen. It is now one of the most sophisticated and select destinations in Riviera Nayarit Mexico that has been developed for tourism.
Sayulita
Sayulita is a village on Mexico’s Pacific coast backed by the Sierra Madre Occidental mountains. It’s known for beaches with strong surf, like the central Sayulita Beach. To the west, Los Muertos Beach is more sheltered, sandwiched between protective rocks. Galleries in Sayulita sell artworks by Huichol indigenous people. Southwest, the Marieta Islands have diverse wildlife such as humpback whales and dolphins.
Yelapa
Its remote location makes it extremely popular among travelers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of Puerto Vallarta, and its picturesque jungle landscapes and cascading waterfalls make it a hit among hikers.

Vallarta Adventures Nuevo Vallarta
Vallarta Adventures is by far the best resource to use if you want to book any excursions. They have zip lining, snorkeling, ATV’s, swimming with the Dolphins, sailing, sunset cruises, and many other tours. Jason and I used them to book a trip to Las Caletas Beach Hideaway and we had a blast!
Marietas Islands
Protection by the government has created an environment conducive to the development of the marine ecosystem, and is a popular location for snorkeling and scuba diving.[8] Not even during whale watching tours, people often report seeing sea turtles, manta rays, octopus, wild dolphins, humpback whales and thousands of species of tropical fish around the islands. The islands are also home to a few thousand birds, with species such as the blue-footed booby. Currently, the Mexican government allows only a few companies to go to the islands and allows the landing of passengers onto one secluded beach with the necessary permit from SEMARNAT. If you want to visit The Marietas Islands, we recommend booking through Ally Cat Tours. They are the best! We have gone to Marietas twice through them.
Majahuitas
Majahuitas is a breathtaking hidden cove where the Sierra Madre mountains and Puerto Vallarta’s enticing sea come together in a spectacular collision. Located south of Puerto Vallarta and accessible only by boat, the warm, clear-emerald water, abundant sea life and lush jungle command your full attention. Very few beaches in the region evoke nature’s power with such magnitude.
