Sayulita isn’t just a beach town — it’s a surf-soaked, taco-filled, wellness-loving destination that pulls you in with its rhythm and keeps you coming back. Whether you’re planning your first visit or a return escape, here are five experiences you can’t miss when you land in this colorful coastal gem.
1. Surf Sayulita’s Iconic Break
This is the reason most people fall in love with Sayulita. The waves are consistent, the vibe is friendly, and whether you’re a beginner or seasoned longboarder, Sayulita delivers. Surf schools line the beach, and nearby spots like La Lancha offer a more advanced challenge just a short drive away.
2. Go on a Street Taco Tour
Start at El Itacate for their famous chile relleno tacos, then wander toward the plaza where food stalls light up the night. From crispy fish tacos to vegan al pastor, the diversity of flavors is unreal. Bonus: many spots are open late, perfect for post-beach hunger.
3. Join a Beachfront Yoga Session
Sayulita is a hub for wellness and mindfulness. Do a sunrise class at Paraiso Yoga, or try sunset yin yoga under a palapa by the sea. You’ll feel your stress melt away — especially if you follow it up with a smoothie bowl from Organi-k.
4. Watch Sunset at Playa Carricitos
Just 15 minutes from the town center, this quieter beach is the perfect spot to unplug. Bring a blanket, maybe a drink, and soak in a sunset with no crowds — just the sound of waves and jungle birds.

Casa Ensueño Sayulita is a luxury three-bedroom vacation home with ocean views, an infinity pool, and open-air living spaces perfect for everything from morning yoga to sunset cocktails.
