Public Beach Access in Marina Vallarta

Marina Vallarta Public Beach Access

Marina Vallarta has only one public beach access point at the end of Paseo Bocanegra street which parallels the golf course. You access the beach just north of the Bay View Grand Condominiums and the Marina Vallarta golf course. There is on-street parking and public restrooms.

The view looking down Paseo Bocanegra street as you are headed towards the beach.

The view across the Marina Vallarta golf course just before you reach the beach. You can see all the way to the south-side of town.

The main beach south of the access point. This picture was taken at a very high tide. Usually, there is about fifteen yards of beach. The beach widens in front of the Bay View Grand Condominiums where there is plenty of room to spread out a towel.

The beach north of the access point. The green fence on the right is the end of the airport runway. It’s very cool to sit on the beach and watch the planes fly directly overhead.

Walk five minutes to the north and you come to Boca de Tomates, the rivermouth where the Rio Ameca meets the ocean. You will find a half dozen funky seafood stands right on the beach. You are so close to civilization but you feel hundreds of miles away.

I just bout a condo in Plaza Marina and this is just down the street from the condo. Now I know where the beach access is. I can not wait to try out the food places on the beach
Thanks
