Marinas in Nayarit
Marina Fonatur San Blas
Small Marina operated by Fonatur up the river at San Blas, just a couple of blocks from town. Mostly smaller slips but they were able to accomodate our 50 ft power boat, although on what was probably a 40 ft dock. Very helpful staff and neighboring boaters, many seemed to be down for the season with San Blas as the base. Be careful of depths behind the slips to the North. There are small bouys that mark the shoal areas - they dry at low tide. Moorage rates were the lowest we saw in Mexico. There is a gas dock along the main channel.
Marina Riviera Nayarit
As the largest marina in the Mexican Pacific, Marina Riviera Nayarit is a modern project of naval architecture and engineering. It has also become an important coastal tourist development, offering investment opportunities in hotels, condominiums and homes, commercial spaces, restaurants and entertainment, all within 24 acres and a 1,300-unit residential capacity. Aiming to become the distinctive icon of Banderas Bay, the marina now has more than 340 docks ranging from 31' to 400'. With highest quality services, Marina Riviera Nayarit has been the venue for several important events such as the Mexico Cup, the 2010 Boat Show, Mexorc and several fishing tournaments of international stature and also host for the first “Tianguis Turístico” held outside Acapulco.
