Hotels in Nayarit, Mexico

Nayarit is a coastal state on Mexico's Pacific shore, with a tropical climate that stays around 75-90°F (24-32°C) year-round. It's famous for the laid-back surf town of Sayulita and the secluded beaches of the Riviera Nayarit, where you can catch waves in winter (November to April) when the water is calmest, or hike to the abandoned village of Malpaso in the rainy summer months for lush jungle views and cheaper stays. If you want a different vibe, head inland to the colonial city of Tepic, where spring temps in the 70s°F (low 20s°C) are perfect for exploring the 16th-century cathedral and trying local seafood at the Mercado de la Cruz.
