Description:
Located on the northwestern side of Banderas Bay, about 25NM north-west of Puerto Vallarta, Punta de Mita is a quiet, comfortable place to stop. Cruisers report that while missing some of the amenities and the convenience of a marina, it is a much more comfortable anchorage than La Cruz as the daily thermal induced winds blow offshore and thus the wind waves are not as great.
Entrance Notes and Cautions:
Following the impact of Hurricane Lidia in October 2023, cruising boats should be aware of debris in the water, missing navigation marks, hurricane damage to docks and limited berth availability.
Position:
20° 46.23'N, 105° 31.13'W (anchorage)
