Yelapa Beach

This place!! Such a picturesque beach!! So isolated and chill. First restaurant has lounge chairs where you can sit for free if you took the water taxi. We brought our own beers and had a lovely day.

A true gemstone. I loved my time in Yelapa so much. From the food, the beach, nature, views, the little village, everything was beautiful. A blessed place 🙏🏼🤍🩵🌊☀

A must visit place. 5 star from the view, the food, the service, and the location. You should drive to Boca De Tamatlan and rent a water taxi from there. It's much faster and less expensive.

The beach is gorgeous. There are some chairs and umbrellas provided by the restaurants

We love this little village. If you can I would recommend staying the night. The town get quiet in the evening and it's great to enjoy the sounds of the ocean and the nature before the crowds arrive on day trips.

Beautiful little quaint fishing and tourist village on this island. We enjoyed our time on the beach at a friendly little restaurant. No cars, roads. Very peaceful.

Great day out from Peurto vallarta. 45 minute boat trip to get there and free sun loungers on the beach in with the ticket price. We hiked to the waterfall which was well worth it, beautiful scenery all along the way and a refreshing swim at the waterfall to cool down. Definitely recommend

Rustic, clean, not overcrowded. LOTS of beach chairs and entertaining stray dogs mooching treats. Loved it.

Absolutely beautiful beach! Amazing waterfall and beautiful horse ride . Loved 🥰 being there ! The shrimp cocktail is amazing

Beautiful place - there is a waterfall in town but there is another one you can hike to that has a swimming area a few miles out.
Loved all the dogs that ran free and the people were always friendly

Beautiful, exotic beach and a small fisherman village. Water is warm , wavy but swimmable. A lot of restaurants, local souvenirs and you can take a picture with iguana for a reasonable price 6$.

Wow, was the best day in a long time. Great beach and swim day, nice restaurant on the beach. The ocean was very calm and relaxing, float or swim whatever you may choose. Half an hour boat ride, my luck it started to rain on the way there. Nice way to cool off, highly recommended for a awesome getaway from all your worries.

A nice respite outside of Puerto Vallarta where you can sit by the beach on a chair, have beach chair service, and also explore the local town.

It’s definitely touristy but you’re likely on a vacation so enjoy it. There are lots of local restaurants to hang out at, you can take ATV or horse tours up to the waterfall, or you can simply hike your way there.

A round trip water taxi from the pier at Los Muertos in Puerto Vallarta was $400 MXN per person round trip. We bought a ticket right next to the pier. It was about a 40 minute water taxi ride each way.

A nice way to explore outside of the city while in PVR.

Very cool beach area! We arrived by water taxi from Puerto Vallarta, costing $200 pesos, about a 45 minute ride. Complimentary use of beach chairs, umbrellas, restrooms, showers and WiFi. There is food and drink service from the bar and the prices were very reasonable, food and drinks were good. Service was fantastic. Can't wait to come back!

Yelapa Beach is extremely beautiful! The water is amazing. Perfect temperature. There are couple of restaurants on the Beach. You can pay by Credit Cards (Visa and Mastercard).
From the Beach you can go to the Waterfall by: ATV, horse, or walking. I walked. First you have to cross the river. It's easy. The walk takes about 1hr-1:30 roundtrip depending how fast you walk. On the way there are some mom-and-pop-stores. The Waterfall is nice. You can take spectacular pictures from your way. You can see how local people live in the nature. It's worth the walk. I really enjoyed it. 👍

We came on a snorkeling tour. We stopped to hike to the waterfall then down to the oasis restaurant. The walk to the waterfall was not bad, but there are a good amount of stairs in the beginning then it's a short but some semi step areas. Just be careful with the horse poop as poeple take them up. The water is so fresh so getting in after the hike makes it totally worth it.
The restaurants all have lounge chairs to lay in the shady beach areas. In june the weather is hot but there was constantly a nice breeze so it felt beautiful. There is a lady walking around selling pies. They are MAGICAL. Especially the guava and Mango. So good.

Perfectly clear and calm water. Love snorkeling there. Wonderful fresh food. We even got to eat a freshly caught fish. Beautiful waterfalls that you can swim in, lay in a hammock in the middle of the pool where the 2 and waterfall is or jump off cliffs and ripe swing. Fascinating just walking through the village.

Loved it. First time there. Took water taxi from pier . Fun ride. Cove and beach just like a bit of paradise. Blue Green amazing clear waters. Warm and come. Lots of wild life to see including see urchin blue crab and more. Food on beach is not the best but spending day in this beautiful spot is worth the money you spend. Will be back

Nice beach to spend the day. There is a waterfall within walking distance and the locals sell food, drinks, and other merchandise. Worth the side trip.

Beautiful destination, gracious and beautiful people, amazing waterfall where you can swim if you want, too! Buy a shot of Rycinne (SP) it's Moonshine Tequila made from Blue Agave! 80 pesos, super smooth! This place is worth every effort to get there! Enjoy!!
