Marietas National Park

Often referred to as the Galapagos of Mexico, Islas Marietas is one of the most visited in the state of Nayarit. The Marietas are composed of three islands and are rocky, rugged islands.

After a massive international outcry, started by scientist Jacques Cousteau in the late 1960s, the government eventually decided to declare the islands a national park and therefore protected against any fishing, hunting or human activity.
