Chacala

Chacala is a beach town set in small cove on the Pacific coast of Mexico in the State of Nayarit. It is located near pueblo Las Varas, about 100 kilometers (62 mi) north of Puerto Vallarta, and is part of the coastline known as the Riviera Nayarita.^[1] The name means "where there are shrimp" in Náhuatl. The population consists of approximately 300 full-time residents but can swell to over 1000 during Mexico's most popular vacation periods, such as Semana Santa (Easter Week) and Christmas. Chacala is known for its physical beauty and unhurried lifestyle.^[2]
