Yelapa is one of a series of beaches located south of Puerto Vallarta that are accessible only by boat. From PUERTO VALLARTA, take the main road, the 200, south. You will pass along the beautiful beaches of Mismaloya and the spectacular rock formations, Los Arcos. Continue to drive to the little port town of BOCA de TOMATLAN. From Boca de Tomatlan, it is a simple matter to purchase a ticket to Yelapa. Yelapa has a beautiful beach, plenty of beach bars, and you hike through the village and up the hill to the waterfall- La Cascada. We show you how in this video! There are a series of other beaches you can visit along the same coast as well- for example, Las Animas and Mahuita.
