The region is also resplendent with abundant tropical vegetation surrounding natural canals. For instance, the Tovara will allow you to enjoy a boat ride and appreciate various animal species such as crocodiles, herons, and many species of turtles.

In addition, local archeological sites, beautiful beaches, and picturesque small Nayarit towns offer unbeatable scenery for epic stories such as the celebrated Cabeza de Vaca, by Nicolás Echavarría, which was filmed in San Blas.

The natural Nayarit scenery becomes a central character to each film. The Riviera Nayarit Film Commission promotes the region to the cinematographic industry by showcasing the area’s natural wonders. The Public Relations Department works in conjunction with the State of Nayarit and other institutions such as the Universidad Autónoma de Nayarit and the Riviera Nayarit Visitors and Conventions Bureau.

This department offers a variety of services and assistance for producers and directors interested in filming their next project in Riviera Nayarit.
