Juan Antonio Arellano – President of UNET LBGT+ said: “The Riviera Nayarit and the whole of the state of Nayarit embrace diversity, inclusion and respect for all. Their visitors will be able to witness it. Nayarit is a state with a tourism offer that is full of magic and beauty not only thanks to its touristic attractions but also thanks to the rich heritage of the living indigenous cultures, the Wixárika people (also known as Huichol people)”.

In the Huichol culture, for example, unions between two people are unions between their souls, regardless of their gender.

In Nayarit we celebrate LOVE: SAME SEX MARRIAGE is protected by the state’s constitution and civil law. Riviera Nayarit has become a favourite destination for same sex weddings and celebrations.
