What are some of the other best beach towns in Mexico that are a little off the beaten path?

My Canadian friend was "wintering" in that area, got stuck there during the plandemic (when Canada wouldn't even let their own citizens back in) , met and married a Mexican Señorita and never went back.🤠✌️
I'm glad you are back in Mexico and making videos about the various amazing places in this beautiful country. Please continue doing these videos about Mexico.
Such a cute town, and the beach looked wonderful. Thanks for taking us there!

You should to know this ; There are many well known places . But Mexico 🇲🇽 is full of theme . There are plenty of beautiful spots all around. Any small town , any small beach, either if you go uphill or down valley . Mexico 🇲🇽 is so Beautiful 😍
Forget PV sounds harsh😳No hard feelings. Coming up with titles that attract attention is soul crushing! The two cities really can't be compared. They are so vasty different. But if you want something much smaller and more quiet, lo de Marcos seems like a good option. But let's keep in mind we were only there for a couple of hours 😃

I was checking out lo de Marcos a couple of years ago as a possible place to retire. I found that the limited housing/lodging had been grabbed up by Canadian/U.S. snowbirds and expats and if you could find something the prices have been driven up do to demand. If you're just visiting there are a couple of hotels and limited RV parking. The streets are empty and quiet Mon-Fri as most of the men work in PV during the week. But come Friday night, Saturday and Sunday out come the BBQ's and beer.

And the Winter Mexicans had already returned home NOB for this year.
Maybe it’s how long I’ve been following you (over 4 years), but no matter where you’ve been you seem the most at home on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. Esta bien?

Lo De Marcos is fantastic. Be sure to eventually make your way up to Chacala. It would very much be your style and is my favorite little beach town in Nayarit.

thank you for the recommendation!
The Mexican government and developers have big plans to develop the coast north of PV (and the south too) up to the town of San Blas, and as you’ve noticed, there are mega infrastructure projects going on. You will see all these little towns developing in the upcoming years. There are many charming coastal towns and the demand and interest in this area is great. Water management and sewage (environmental is a huge issue and hasn’t kept up with the development. Sayulita has had sewage issues in the past. Hopefully it is being addressed.

I wonder how the area is going to be affected by the new train that is supposed to go in south of there?
Too funny that you’re there! We just toured there last Thursday and absolutely loved it as well ❤ Actually, we got completely lost in time sitting on the beach listening to the waves 🌊
I'm from Nayarit and I gotta say that Nayarit has the best beaches. There is a lot that you can find from San Blas all the way down to nuevo Vallarta
We love all these areas. We live in ixtlahuacan de Los membrillos and drive to these beaches whenever we can. Ohh and I'm also a coffee snob! I have yet to try your coffee, but I'm very interested.

Awesome. I've been there once on a moto ride. Cool little spot.
Seven or so years ago, the VRBO owner in Sayulita took us to Lo De Marcos. He just built a house there , Casa Vulkan( still remember the name!) and was showing it to us , as a cheaper alternative to Sayulita. I remember we had lunch on the beach, I had octupus , delicious… Beautiful beach, but the town was depressing, I remember old deteriorating hotels , abandoned houses by the beach, and it all looked sad. As if the place died at one point and there was a reason for that ( we didn’t know ).. may be with Sayulita prices and the wrong crowds it attracts now, LDM is livelier.. but for some reason I still think that there is reason why it did die and never revived! Especially because around it really busy towns - San Pancho and Chacala on the north.. You guys should visit Chacala and hike Alta Vista!!
Bonjour ! Lots of us from Québec all along the coast, from Melaque, PV, Bucerias, LDM. Salutations! ⚜️🇨🇦
That's how I remember Yucalpeten, Chelém and Chuburná in Puerto Progreso, Yucatán area when I was a kid.
Greg and Hillary, This place looks perfect. Sharing with my other half. Thank you guys.❤
Hi Guys! Another great Video! Greg I haven't seen you fish in a long while, do you still enjoy it? Also great news- Today I got my Mexican Residency at the Consulate in Boston! Can't wait to head south!
This is the best way to discover spotless beaches a long the Nayarit Riviera. Please go and check Chacala, Bahía de Chila Platanitos and other so nice beaches around (nicer than Lo de Marco) if you ´ve never been there before. Great videos, thank you

Kennons back in Mexico! That sun is good to both of you! Enjoy guys!
Punta Mita, Sayulita, Guaymas, Cabo, Huatulco. One by one the peaceful serenity of Mexico is being destroyed. De los Marcos is certainly next. There are still places, I won't say where, where you can still find peace and serenity along the coast in Mexico, but its getting harder to find them.
I was there 2 years ago, had a wonderful time in this quiet town, and it was mostly Mexican people at the beach that time, it probably means that the word it out 😅hopefully it doesn’t turn into another San Pancho or Sayulita.
We were there in early 2020. This was the height of covid. We wanted to rent long term but it was a ghost town. Is there long term rentals now that you saw? A few weeks ago after seeing your walking tour in the Romantic Zone in Vallarta, we stayed in the center of the Zone for a week. It was great with everything walkable.
One good indication of the Mexican local ratio there, is the Mexican “what’s up” whistle at 7:45, unless the foreigners are starting pick up on the Mexican whistle too!?? Lol. Another great video guys, love it.
Sayulita is very busy, it's really not for me, 4 hours and you're ready to leave. Boco, south of Puerto Vallarta a half an hour, is a great place to visit for the day.

After San Pancho, Sayulita it must be such a soothing place to decompress. I live in a sleepier town 2hrs away from Lo de M and it’s even sleepier: it’s a balm, I love the absence of the maddening crowds of tourists.
Me encanta Vallarta esta hermoso
Hi Kinetic Kennons I just wanted to say to you that all the videos you publish I love them I'm mexican and I have known places and cities that I never imagined to know and thanks to you I've seen those cities and towns Thanks ✨
Uncrowded isolated beach is the best of the best.
This is what I been looking for.. Awesome!!
Enjoy guys!
Hi!! I ordered some Oaxaca Con Todo coffee this week!! Can't wait to try it! And so happy to see y'all back in Mexico again 😁🇲🇽⛱️🙌
I loved lo de Marco's.. I just hope it does not ruined like sayulita is and san pancho is slowly becoming that too..too bad the secret is out
Neta ? después de años de no ver a este par de gringos, caigo aqui de casualidad y veo que no se han preocupado por aprender español aún? No sería lo minimo que podrian hacer para agradecer a México por darles tanto contenido y buenos momentos? Bahh! ALV
Very lovely beach and the food looked delicious. Happy to have found you here.
“No kids running around” lol. Lumping then with vendors and construction 😂 I’ll be heading that way soon… with my kids running around, ruin the peace! 👀
Try Playa las Tortugas... south of San Blas!
You need to take a trip over to Bucerias and do some new vids there, a lot looks to have changed recently. Looking forward to our first visit in a few weeks time!
Haha.."with good company right?" Score one for the Charcutie!
Nice find. You guys are so in your element in warm weather. Shorts and flip flips in a Polish January looks painful 😂
Guys never heard of this town, you guys are awesome to discover these jewels, please continued doing it
Nice place, I saw a documental of costalegre people said is beautiful there too, thanks for new video Greg and Hillary!! Blesings!!
You should go to la Penita and Compostela Nayarit there are aguas Termales .
thanks for sharing this gem of a location!
My favorite town in Mexico. Quite and relaxing.
LDM is fantastic. Great people and beautiful location. Look for Martita with the ceviche cart...
Haha guys i knew it! I met you 4 years ago in Vallarta beach, lo de Marcos is my favorite Destiny for every february... Of course just for couples days because it is so quiet. But very good to see the stars
Hillary, your dentist must be having a heart attack watching you eat that banderilla!!😂
HAVE YOU CHECK OUT SAN BLAS NAYARIT? IF NOT YOU SHOULD
Vallan a conocer Rincón de huallabitos es una playa muy bonita
Great to see you both again. I used to always watch your channel, but when you moved home, I stopped. I resub today
Looks nice going there next month we’ll check this place out cheers from Canada ❤
Awesome!
Anyone in an rv has heard of Lo de Marcos. Spent 4 months there
French Canadian's know where it's at! It's mostly because there are a few great camping spots in Lo de Marcos .. the snowbirds are gone now
La Peñita is the crown of that section of beach. Los Ayala, Guayabitos, La Peñita, and Chacala. The Anglo-Canadians and French-Canadians are enemies, you can trust me on that.

Mexico Beach towns do not belong to Canadians 😊
At times French Canadians come across like they’re a cut above you I don’t believe they mean that I just find that they are more direct. I’m Canadian I’m French however I’m not a French Canadian because I’m not from Quebec my parents were.
Love this beach. You have to go to Playa los Cocos y Platanitos.
You two BELONG in Mexico. You know that, right? I've bern watching y'all for 4.5 years. Great as alwsys.
Nice video. It seems like you have to change busses when arriving in Sayulita!? Because the bus depot in Sayulita is the end of that trip from Puerto Vallarta. Is is more like a local bus who gets you to Lo de Marcos? Or do you have to take a cab / Uber to get there??
"No vendors". Several vendors appear xD
I checked once for rentals in Lo do Marcos...very high priced unfortunately😢 Any tips for affordable 2/2 casa rentals in the area???
This sounds like a beautiful peaceful beach! Just need to know - did you go in the ocean? is it a good beach for going into the water and swimming? i.e. not too many rocks, waves not too big? It looks good for swimming, but am wondering about entry into the ocean - are there lots of rocks? Thanks for this, very interesting.
Hidden gem is playa los Ayala- playa platanitos- aticama and las islitats
Totally awesome.
Another hidden gem is playa chacalilla. Good luck getting in there though
I’m always amused at the gringos who go somewhere and say , we found this secret place..
Good video guys
Hey Kennons! All 2 and a half! How far would you say Lo de Marcos is from PV?
Beautiful beach area! Is Lo do Marcos about an hour from Puerto Vallarta or is further? Thanks!
Thank you for the video! is there a way to buy a sim card at the PV airport so we can have wifi right away on our cellphone? thank you!
Youbshould go to Mulegé annd all the beaches nearby in Baja but not Cabo. The other side if the peninsula. And many others .
I don't know, empty beaches feel creepy to me.😅
It isn't a gem or hidden anymore.
Kennons, do y'all drive when you're at these places, especially in Mexico? I'd love to check this place out, but I'm car-less, so it would mean getting there from PV airport most likely.

I really love you guys and you seem like the nicest people, but sometimes when you post a video I don’t feel like you really show the place. Here we saw the beach and a few spots, but maybe you could show the streets while you walk? IDK - I am always a supporter, just a suggestion. P.S. as a French Canadian, you don’t want to get on our bad side!😂
