Blas residents are working to maintain and further
develop sustainable ecotourism. Visit San Blas
and experience the beauty of this diverse habitat.
EcoTours available in San Blas include birdwatching,
whale watching, jungle tours, kayaking, jungle
hikes, camping, snorkeling or diving.
San Blas is a historic seaport town (population
12,000) on Mexico's Pacific Ocean, 95 miles north
of Puerto Vallarta. Travelers have been visiting
San Blas beaches since the 60's for sun, surf,
and relaxation, yet San Blas has not been developed
into a tourist resort like Puerto Vallarta or Mazatlan;
it is well-known among Mexicans as a favorite "tranquil"
vacation spot.
Founded in 1768 by Spain as a home port
for ships setting sail for California, San Blas provided
Spanish galleons safe harbor and protection from Dutch
and English pirates.
Explore San Blas' historical sites
and vibrant cultural traditions of festivals and
music.
