San Blas Jungle Tour, Nayarit, Mexico

San Blas Jungle Tours
Jungle tours are available from two main starting points but we recommend going from the main bridge at the entrance to San Blas as this will provide a longer and more enjoyable trip going through more of the mangroves.

The early morning with its cooler temperatures and tranquil waters offer better opportunities to see more wildlife while also having you back before the day gets too hot. Once the large tour groups arrive from Puerto Vallarta you can expect the water traffic to adversely disturb the wildlife and thereby reduce your sightings.

Jungle Tour Guides
The local tour guides are very knowledgeable and have a keen eye for spotting and identifying wildlife. Guides can be found congregate by the bus stop near the bridge offering two hour trips for around 360 Peso/boat. You can go as a couple or share the boat and reduce your expense.

On our 2007 trip we discovered the Aticama Bed and Breakfast located just 8km from San Blas on a wonderful stretch of beach that we shared with a handful of people until the weekend.On Sundays the beach becomes a vibrant gather place for Mexican families who come to enjoy a game of soccer, a swim or just the company of friends.
