Where to Eat

There used to be just one place to eat on Sayulita’s North Beach, La Terrazola restaurant, but now there are a few options, including Las Sirenas, for cocktails and ceviche, a nameless makeshift seafood café on the sands close to La Terrazola for fresh grilled shrimp and fish, and a number of wandering vendors selling everything from shrimp on a skewer to chicken and cheese tamales. There are also half a dozen restaurants half a block in from the beach.

Cross the river that runs through town, separating north from south, and hike the long, clean, uncrowded north side beach. Here, turtles swim ashore to lay clutches of eggs, frigates and pelicans swoop, and untouched waves crash on shifting shores of gold.  The crowd runs from the hippie campers at one end to the posh precincts of private beachfront palaces at the other. Find a spot in between, pop an umbrella, and relax on Sayulita’s most spacious stretch of sand.
