Marriage Requirements

Getting married in Mexico requires a valid passport and an original and copy of birth certificates annotated and translated by an authorized translator certified in Spanish. Death and divorce decrees are required if applicable. Check with your Certified Destination Wedding Specialist for more details.

Travel Information

Travel Documents

Passports are required for visitors entering Mexico. If you are a citizen of the US, visit travel.state.gov for more information on travel documents needed. For Canadian travelers, visit travel.gc.ca for relevant travel information.

Language

Spanish is the official language of Mexico, though English is widely spoken and understood.

Currency and Tipping

The peso is the currency of Mexico, but US dollars are often widely accepted in resort areas.

Climate & Beaches

Climate

Riviera Nayarit has a mild tropical climate with an average temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit. In the summer, the average temperature is in the high 90's F. Rain season comes in June and last until November.

Beaches

Riviera Nayarit has miles of beaches running along the Pacific, and some are still unexplored. Though there are a number of great surfing spots, try Las Islitas or El Anclote for lessons. Matanchen Bay is known for great swimming and sailing.

Activities & Attractions

Activities

Aside from its beaches, Riviera Nayarit has marketplaces, shops and plenty of eco-excursions. Given the prolific marine life in the area, divers can easily experience the many reefs, filled with turtles, swordfish and manta rays. Or, get up close to humpback whales in their natural habitat with a cruise or guided tour. On land, try zip lining through the nearby jungle or explore the many local surf villages.

Nightlife

At night, Riviera Nayarit has a few nightclubs and beachside bars to keep you entertained.

Enjoy the view

Though Riviera Nayarit was a secret surfer’s haven in the not-so-distant past, this 100-mile patch of Pacific has seen tremendous growth in recent years, thanks to delightful towns and luxurious beachfront properties that are no longer well-kept secrets. If you’re a foodie, it’s not difficult to eat your way through Riviera Nayarit, with fresh seafood and tropical fruit around every corner. For nature lovers, weddings in Riviera Nayarit leave you plenty to explore in the quaint, still, almost entirely tourist-free towns along the way. If you’re looking for privacy, there are many private islands dotting the coastline with jaw-dropping views.
