Beachfront to mountainside, Vallarta is full of palapas! Despite their primitive appearance, palapa building is an art and requires practice and creative ability. Palapas must be built in accordance with prevailing winds, all based on the structure’s weight, beam size, and roof angle! Think about that the next time you’re sipping your pina colada in the shade of a palapa!
