The Riviera Nayarit Classic was an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the Symetra Tour, the LPGA Tour's developmental tour. It was the first full-field event on the Symetra Tour to be played outside the United States.[1] It is played at El Tigre Golf and Country Club in Nuevo Vallarta, Nayarit, Mexico.

The tournament was a 54-hole event, as are most Symetra Tour tournaments, and included pre-tournament pro-am, in which local amateur golfers can play with the professional golfers from the Tour as a benefit for local charities.
