This Sunday we went to a small beach town called Quimixto and the beach is perfect for surfing, snorkeling, swimming, etc. It has a waterfall a little more deeply into the mountain so we walked (like 30 minutes, because it has a difficult road, basically is climbing a rocky path) up to see it and we spent less than an hour there, it was the calm before the storm when I saw the time for the first time in the entire day and realized that it was late! A quarter to 6:00 pm and the last boat that goes back to the city departs at 6:20 pm so pretty much we had to pay the bill and run back to the pier. I don't know how long the path is but it felt like 4 km. (We did catch it though).
The only way to get to this beach town is by boat, you have to go to Boca de Tomatlán pier, it's about a 30-minute drive from Puerto Vallarta, and the price per person is around 60 pesos ($3 USD).
