On my recent Staying Adventurous podcast I attempted to discover an answer to the top travel question, “What is your favorite travel destination?” In my many responses and destinations, I personally mentioned surfing in Sayulita. I loved it there and in the Riviera Nayairt. And now in the 4th episode of the Mexico Travel Journal […]

by Craig Zabransky on December 22, 2016 in Beach, Mexico Travel, Stay Luxurious
For many Mexico is country consisting on three main beach destinations; Los Cabos, the Riviera Maya and Cancun, and Puerto Vallarta. Yet, the country consists of so much more including many relatively “unknown” beach destinations too. Some even access the same airports as those “big 3.” If you follow along, you know I’ve make mention […]
A Pacific Coast Mexican Road Trip through Riviera Nayarit
by Craig Zabransky on April 29, 2015 in Destination, Mexico Travel

Still plenty of Magic on the Island of Mexcaltitan, Nayarit with its Zarandeado
by Craig Zabransky on March 11, 2015 in Culture Thru Cuisine, Destination, Mexico Travel
Mexcaltitán may no longer be an official Pueblo Magico, but there is plenty of magic left on this sleepy fishing island. The magic exists in the Mexican must order Zarandeado or spelled Sarandeado (naturally I prefer the “Z” spelling). This fish dish is available along the coast of Nayarit and also on menus in southern Sinaloa, […]

by Craig Zabransky on March 13, 2014 in Beach, Films, Mexico Travel
The seaside town of Sayulita has been on my “must visit” list in Mexico for years. The surfer-yoga enclave intrigued me from the very first day I heard about it, a day well before I ever I fell in love with Mexico. An hour north of Puerto Vallarta along the pacific coast’s the small beach […]
The Beach Town of San Francisco ….. Mexico?
by Craig Zabransky on March 6, 2014 in Beach, Destination, Mexico Travel
San Francisco, Nayarit, Mexico. Yes San Francisco is a place worth visiting in Mexico too and the quaint beach village on Mexico’s Riviera Nayarit left an impression on me. A few miles up the coast from the popular hippie beach town of Sayulita, visitors find the town of San Francisco also known locally as San […]
