Playa Yelapa is one of the most secluded and beautiful beaches in all of the state of Jalisco, Mexico. Most visitors to Mexico haven't even heard of Yelapa and it has been well hidden and off the beaten path as it has no road access and requires a 1-hour boat ride from Puerto Vallarta to visit its pristine shores. The village is quaint, beautiful, and is perfectly tucked into the tall jungle-covered mountains of the Sierra Madre. No cars, no stoplights, and no high rise can be found in Yelapa making it an excellent place for a quiet beach getaway.
