Sayulita is a small town in Mexico along the Pacific Ocean at the southern end of the state of Nayarit and north of Banderas Bay.

In 1936, the livestock were sold and the land donated to the port workers with the intention to continue producing, leading to the formation of the Sayulita ejido.

Though less abundant than the past, species fished commercially in the region include snapper, horse mackerel, sawfish, grouper, oyster, shrimp and lobster.

Terrestrial animals local to the Sayulita area include armadillos, coati, rattlesnakes, iguanas, chachalacas, wild boars and deer.

[4] Locals fish for dorado, tuna, sierra, marlin, guachinango, juriel, cherna, sailfish, and roosterfish, along with shrimp, lobster and oyster.
