If you are in the mood to relax, sit in peace and quiet, and play in clear water, Amapas & Conchas Chinas are the places for you!

You will find Amapas & Conchas Chinas to be peaceful compared to its partner to the north, Playa de los Muertos. However, if you like beaches that have beachside restaurants and bars, Playa de los Muertos may be a better option!

Unlike Cancun, Puerto Vallarta is not known for it’s crystal clear water. However, if hasn’t rained in a few days, Conchas Chinas will be about as clear as you could ask for!   If you are at the Pier at Playa de los Muertos just follow the beach towards the blue chairs area (south) until the beach comes to an end. At this point you will climb up and descend a small hill that will bring you to a rocky beach. Continue walking south. Climb up another small hill towards a sidewalk next to a white condo building. Follow this path until you come to a small set of stairs leading towards the water.
