Things To Do
Surf
There is the obvious surf breakt that is great for longboarders in town. It can get busy, so its worth checking out a few other spots like: San Pancho, La Lancha and Burros. Its a great destination to learn, let us know if you want to get some info for lesson! Wildmex has some really great rental options if you want to get a board for your stay!
Whale Watching
The biogeographic location of Sayulita makes it a whale watcher's dream Situated at the meeting point of the North Pacific Ocean and the entrance to the Sea of Cortez, the beginning of the region termed the "Eastern Tropical Pacific", to the east of the Marias Islands and just to the north of the Bay of Banderas, Sayulita is centered in a marine transition zone which ensures a wide diversity of whales and dolphins, and creates an incredible location for whale watching.
Sea Turtle Release
The turtle camp is on Sayulita's far north end of the beach just before Pajaro de Fuego. If coming from the street, the address is 196 Av del Palmar. It is a roped off area on the beach with marker sticks indicating each nest. Volunteers are needed to for nighttime beach patrol shifts and relocating the eggs. Be sure to check the North side of the beach every night from August - December around 6:30pm for the turtle release. Enjoy the sunset and help release the baby turtles that hatched that day!
