Beautiful Yelapa on your terms. Hop on a bus in Puerto Vallarta that drives directly to Boca de Tomatlan (20 pesos each, each way). Once there, walk down in to town down to the water taxis ($100 pesos each, each way - 30 min. wavy ride, I felt like a child). Upon arrival head straight for the town, bypass the beach (you can enjoy it later). Walk up the steps and voilà walk the narrow cobblestone streets to the falls. There is another adventure, 1.5 hour walk to a greater waterfall (my next trip). Enjoy the walk, have a bite, coffee, simply relax, then hit the beach. ***Do find out what time the water taxis depart and which ones you can take if you bought a return ticket. ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT !!See more..
4.0Cascada El Salto(125 reviews) - Mazamitla and Waterfall Waterfalls
We hired Juan Pablo to take us from Ajijic to Mazamitla. He arranged 4 wheelers for us to the falls. School wasn't out yet, so it wasn't crowded. Since the rainy season is just getting started, the falls were nice. It not flowing at their full potential. I suggest taking the ATV's, because it looks like a LONG walk. There is a horseback riding option, but an hour and a half on a horse might be a bit much. Take snacks and drinks. There are bathrooms at the falls. See more..
This waterfall is a little out of the way and you have to ask around to get to it because you have to go through back country dirt roads to get to the "parking" area- or the dead end to the dirt road- once there there are usually a lot of cars so it seems safe to park there and walk to the waterfall. On this hike be prepared with comfy shoes! It is about an hour walk down hill to get to the waterfall that is well worth it! It is a 105 meter waterfall- the tallest in the state- equivalent to 344 feet- this is an amazing thing to witness- plus the spray from the waterfall feels wonderful after the exhausting walk to get to it. The hardest part was the walk up- TAKE WATER!- if the downhill walk was hard, the uphill walk is even harder and every exhausting- your legs kinda tremble on the way up- but it is all very worth itSee more..
4.5Cascada Los Azules(17 reviews) - Best restaurant in Tlaquepaque! Waterfalls

Wonderful place to visit! Absolutely gorgeous. You can both swim and hike here. The water is pretty deep, but there are also places were you can stay on you feet in the water. Many bugs, so get a protection against them.See more..
