Lo de Marcos is twenty minutes north of Sayulita and feels like the coast did twenty years ago. The beach is one of the calmest on the Riviera Nayarit, the town is still mostly Mexican families, and the lots on the hill behind it have the same ocean views as Sayulita’s at a fraction of the price.

It is our pick for buyers who want land now and are willing to wait for the town to catch up.

Character

  • A small Mexican town with a long, calm, swimmable beach
  • Little nightlife and a lot of space
  • A seasonal Canadian community and a growing number of full-time families
  • Prices still a fraction of Sayulita and San Pancho
