Chacala, Nayarit, Mexico
Plans to do:
archeological visit, to the Altavista petroglyph complex is located near Chacala, The area is known as "La Pila del Rey", "El Santuario", This region was originally home to the largely unstudied Tecoxquin native culture dating from approximately 2000 BC to 2300 BCE. It contains 56 petroglyphs whose antiquity cannot be accurately determined. Aside from its cultural and archeological importance, the site remains an important religious center for the Huicholes who still leave offerings and perform ceremonies here.
located along the sides of a creek on the slopes the Copo volcano. Covers an area of approximately 80 hectares, with a large concentration of petroglyphs. More than 2000 engravings identified.
It is located about 40 minutes from Chacala, the plan is to walk enjoying the beautiful landscapes to the center of the petroglyphs, a guide is needed to get there, I can put you in contact with one who speaks perfect English and knows the sheep even by the name of the trees. if you want to go it is necessary to schedule the tour
Eating plans:
We can offer you the cook service for breakfast, lunch and leave you dinner prepared in the refrigerator so that you only reheat it. This helps to avoid the stress of cooking or having to go out every day to eat.
I can also leave you menus and phone numbers of restaurants or home delivery,
remember that here on the beach everything takes much longe.
The town of Cahacala is very small, a traditional Mexican beach town, there is only one street with several restaurants with Mexican food, the zarandeado fish and the bean tacos are great.
My recommendations are Las Brisa, Acela or Chicos restaurant. in the Beach clubhouse, there is a small cafeteria that opens from 9 to 5, there are hamburgers, ceviches, very basic but good
If you need to buy food, there is the Roca store (the new one) it is in the center of town and you can find a wide assortment of Costco products, it also has home delivery
·The day the Casa Cielo,
wake up and go out to walk to the viewpoint of ¨la punta¨ through the walkway that takes you through wonderful views. come back and have a good breakfast at home in the outdoor dining room, Xochilt the cook is excellent for Mexican food, spend a long day at the beach order snacks and ceviches at the clubhouse and then come home for dinner at home a rested time on the net or watching movies with the family.
·Day at sea
we can arrange for you to have a panga (boat) to go fishing, or to visit the secret beach of las cuevitas (wonderful for snorkeling), if you already have knowledge they can take you surfing to La Caleta, a world-renowned surf spot, we can also schedule surfing classes surfing at el palmar beach
