A busy surf town with a forgiving wave out front and the best food on the coast.
The peninsula at the top of Banderas Bay: private villas, reef breaks and long, mellow points.

Surf
Long, slow rides. The classic first-wave spot in the bay.
A short walk through the jungle from the road.
Several reef setups off the peninsula, reached by panga.
Punta Mita has more surf within a short drive than anywhere else on this coast, from the soft longboard waves at El Anclote to the reefs on the peninsula’s north side. Most beachfront homes are large private villas, many inside gated communities.
For owners
Vrbo now takes 12% from every host. We feature a small number of genuinely oceanfront homes, and build owners their own direct-booking site, so repeat guests book with you, not a platform.
