Yelapa, Jalisco, Mexico is like traveling back into time.
Yelapa Mexico is tucked away in a small cove off of Bahía de Banderas (Banderas Bay) which is on the Pacific Ocean. For starters there are no roads and no cars in Yelapa. I believe they just got electricity around 10 years ago. As mentioned above you have to take a water to to get to Yelapa so it does cut down on the amount of tourist roaming around. It is just the spot to get away from the large all inclusive type of resorts in Peurto Vallarta.
Don’t get me wrong there are many nice beaches throughout Mexico that we visited and enjoyed. However, we were looking to get away from large crowds and vendors always approaching us on the beach. I totally understand they are working to support their families. I get that and do purchase stuff from them form time to time but in Puerto Vallarta, at times be a little much. Especially if your'e trying to relax or enjoy conversation with a friend.

You wont find any chain restaurants or hotels in Yelapa but you will find many great spots to dine, relax or explore. Yelapa is made up of three parts. You have the beach area in Yelapa, you have the "up river" area and then Pueblo area. All accessed with cobble stone or groomed path ways.
Until recently the town did not really have reliable internet service. There are now two options for internet in Yelapa. You have yelapawifi.com and ????
