The river-mouth fishing village where the coast road turns inland: the water-taxi hub for the roadless south shore and the trailhead for the coastal jungle walk to Colomitos and Las Ánimas.
Practical
Coordinate is the OSM place node for Boca de Tomatlán. Pangas and water taxis to Colomitos (about 5 minutes), Las Ánimas, Quimixto and Yelapa; buses from the Zona Romántica (Basilio Badillo and Constitución) about every 20 minutes. Coastal trail: Boca to Colomitos is a moderately strenuous 40-minute hike, continuing past Caballo and Madagascar beaches toward Las Ánimas (Banderas News). Small cove crowded with local pangas; not a yacht anchorage.
