Yelapa

places the editors have been and recommend you visit

Nestled in the southernmost cove of the world's 7th largest

bay, lies the peaceful village of Yelapa, Jalisco, Mexico. Alt-

hough there is a road which leads to the pueblo, it is most

easily accessible by boat. Transportation to the village departs

daily from various locations in the Puerto Vallarta area.

Yelapa's tranquillity is ideal for those looking to stay, for that

entirely laid-back vacation. The beach is covered in a blanket

of golden sand, and is a superb place to swim, snorkel, or par-

asail. If you are not that energetic you can just relax in one of

the numerous beach chairs, soak up the sun, and enjoy a cold

drink.

To travel to Yelapa, you must first go to Puerto Vallarta, which

road which leads to the outskirts of the village. The road is used mostly for the delivery of building materials

used by the community. The most widely used method of

travel to and from the pueblo is by boat.
