Frideras, Frideritas and El Toro have been placed on the Riviera Nayarit tourist map; travelers can reach them from Los Ayala and enjoy a day full of adventure or a pleasant rest.
Everyone knows Rincón de Guayabitos and its beautiful coral island, and although the beauty of this and its value as an icon of the tourist corridor formed by Rincón de Guayabitos-Peñita de Jaltemba-Los Ayala, in Riviera Nayarit, is undeniable, there are other beaches that are still little explored that are well worth visiting.
This time we will focus on three small and charming ones: Playa Frideras, Playa Frideritas and Playa del Toro, which form a new beach corridor that must be followed very closely. All three can be reached by land or by sea, resulting in a very gratifying experience since they are surrounded by vegetation and receive very few visitors, ideal for spending a day in absolute tranquility.
Travelers can reach them from Los Ayala or Rincón de Guayabitos and enjoy a day full of adventure, a pleasant rest and a regenerating stay.
Frideritas Beach

also called “kiss beach”, is located approximately 150 meters walking from Los Ayala beach. At the end of the coast there is a path between the mountains that ends in a small reserve in the jungle. After approximately 7 minutes walking, going down the last slope is a small paradise that enjoys the greatest tranquility: a charming beach with golden sand and fine texture, its waters have shades that vary from blue to green and its surroundings are perfectly complemented with its predominant vegetation.
Frideras Beach

It is the longest and most developed beach, since there's even a restaurant that offers fresh seafood; and although it has a rockier coastline, at high tide when the ocean is calm it offers good conditions for snorkeling and even diving. It can be easily reached by boat taking a tour from Los Ayala.
bull beach

It is a small beach -measuring only 200 meters long by 30 meters wide- and is rarely visited due to the effort required to access it. To get there, you have to walk along a slightly sloping path for approximately 2 kilometers from Los Ayala beach, although you can also get there by boat on one of the tours offered by the fishermen's cooperative. With calm waves and a moderate slope, the water is crystal clear and has green and blue tones due to the surrounding vegetation. The plus of this beach is the Mirador del Toro, a cliff that can be reached by walking along an open path through the jungle. The journey can be exhausting, but the reward is great, since the views from that place are truly impressive.
