Nayarit

Nayarit Essentials

Nayarit spans from the luxury resorts of the Punta Mita peninsula to the colonial architecture of its capital, Tepic. The region features the calm, shallow waters of Rincón de Guayabitos and the neo-Gothic Cathedral of Tepic. Inland, the town of Jala offers traditional markets, while the surrounding landscape is marked by natural landmarks like the Mirador del Aguila and the waterfalls of La Taza and Santa Rosa. Cultural sites include the Teatro del Pueblo Alí Chumacero, a hub for performing arts.
