A morning drive south from downtown Puerto Vallarta delivers you to Boca de Tomatlán, a working fishing pier where the jungle leans toward the sea and small pangas bob like waiting guides.

Boca de Tomatlán has been a small fishing community and natural access point to the southern coves for generations, long before road connections reached many beaches.
These coves have fragile nearshore habitats—use reef-safe products, avoid stepping on rocky reefs, and carry out all trash to reduce local impact.
