OVERVIEW
Costalegre is a broad coastal region south of Puerto Vallarta, where forested hills descend towards beaches, lagoons and rocky headlands. Small towns, private estates and low-rise resorts are spread across long distances, leaving many sections lightly developed. Roads provide uneven access, and some bays are reached most easily by boat.
The appeal lies in space, nature and privacy rather than nightlife or dense resort infrastructure. Surfing, fishing, wildlife watching and beach time vary by location. Distances are considerable, so choosing one or two bases is more practical than trying to follow the entire coast in a short trip.

THINGS TO DO
Spend an evening in Costalegre
Spend an evening around Costalegre’s main evening district, choosing venues that fit the local scene rather than assuming every district offers the same atmosphere. Opening nights and late transport can vary.
Look for wildlife areas in Costalegre
Look for wildlife around Costalegre’s wildlife areas with attention to habitat and responsible viewing distances. Seasons affect animal movement, and wild sightings should never be guaranteed. Choose it only if it fits your base and route.
Surf at Costalegre’s best-known surf break only in conditions suited to your ability. Breaks, currents and access vary by season, and unfamiliar locations are best approached with local advice. Choose it only if it fits your base and route.
Find Costalegre’s rocky coves
Spend time at Costalegre’s rocky coves rather than treating every nearby beach as interchangeable. Swimming conditions, access and facilities can vary, so check locally before entering the water.
