Yelapa
Yelapa is a charming and secluded fishing village located just 20 miles south of Puerto Vallarta, making it an ideal day trip for visitors looking for a change of pace from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Why Yelpa is an excellent place to visit!

With no roads leading in or out of the village, visitors can enjoy an escape from the modern world, taking in the stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and lush jungle foliage. Spend the day relaxing on the beach, snorkeling in the coves, browsing the local artisan crafts, or hiking up to the waterfall. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful getaway or a fun adventure, Yelapa is the perfect day trip from Puerto Vallarta.

As much as we love the beautiful waterfalls and beaches of Quixmixto, Yelapa takes natural beauty to a whole new level. Nestled in the stunning Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico is the enchanting village of Yelapa, located near Puerto Vallarta. With its lush rainforest and sparkling waterfalls, Yelapa is a paradise for travelers from near and far. From its rich history to its breathtaking scenery, there are many reasons why Yelapa should be at the top of your list for your next vacation.

Once a secluded fishing village, Yelapa is an oasis of tranquility, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Puerto Vallarta’s tourist scene. The village is accessible only by boat or a two–hour hike, and its isolation has helped preserve its unique charm and natural beauty.

Yelapa’s history dates back to the 16th century when it was home to the Huichol Indians, who were renowned for their colorful hand-crafted jewelry and traditional artwork. The village was later occupied by the Spanish, who built the Church of San Sebastian, which still stands today.

Today, Yelapa is known for its pristine beaches, which offer visitors a chance to relax and soak up the sun. The town also has excellent snorkeling and diving spots, where you can explore the vibrant and diverse marine life of the Bay of Banderas. In addition to its stunning beaches and ocean activities, Yelapa is home to a number of fascinating attractions.

 The nearby Yelapa Waterfall is a must-see, with its cascading waters and lush vegetation. Yelapa is a place where travelers can find solace and relaxation, surrounded by stunning natural beauty.

From its remarkable history to its beautiful beaches, Yelapa is a destination that should not be missed. So, what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and get ready to explore this magical corner of Mexico.
