Highway 200 serves as your main artery for reaching Sayulita, connecting directly to Puerto Vallarta's airport and major supply centers to the south. The highway handles RVs of all sizes without issues, but pay attention to the turnoff into Sayulita proper. The access road from Highway 200 narrows considerably as you approach town, with some tight curves that challenge larger rigs.
RVs over 30 feet should scout the route before committing to the full drive into town. The main street through Sayulita gets congested, especially during peak tourist seasons, and turning around with a big rig becomes problematic. Most experienced Mexico RVers recommend staying at campgrounds on the highway side of town rather than venturing into the narrow beach-adjacent streets. Overnight parking along Highway 200 isn't officially sanctioned, but some travelers report success at larger pullouts with permission from local businesses. Fuel stops with motorhome access are limited in the immediate area, so top off your tanks in Puerto Vallarta or plan your next fuel stop accordingly.
