Pacific coast resort golf north of Puerto Vallarta, with oceanfront layouts and full service resorts.
Riviera Nayarit runs north from Puerto Vallarta along the Pacific and pairs oceanfront golf with full service resorts, most famously around the Punta Mita peninsula. The setting is tropical rather than desert: jungle backdrops, humidity and courses that finish on the water. Transfers from Puerto Vallarta airport are short enough for a weekend trip, and the region works well for couples because the resorts carry spa, beach and dining programmes alongside the golf. Access to the best known courses is often tied to staying at an affiliated resort or being a member guest, so accommodation and golf need to be planned together. The dry season from November to May gives the most reliable conditions. TeeLinkUp tracks Riviera Nayarit as a golf travel destination and connects you with golfers already playing in Mexico, so you can line up a game before you land instead of hoping for an open slot on the tee sheet. Book the marquee round first, keep one day flexible for weather, and budget for caddies, transfers and any resort package minimums on top of the published green fee.
Best time to play: November to May for the dry season.
