About Puerto Vallarta
Cobbled streets, a seaside boardwalk and jungle-clad mountains give Puerto Vallarta, on Mexico's Banderas Bay, its easy Pacific charm.
The Malecón, a long seafront boardwalk lined with bronze sculptures, links the old town with restaurants, bars and galleries, and the parish church of Guadalupe crowns the centre with its distinctive crown-topped tower. The Romantic Zone, south of the Cuale River, has cobbled lanes, Los Muertos Beach and its pier, and a lively evening scene.
Top-ranked sights in Puerto Vallarta: Banderas Bay (Bahía de Banderas), El Malecon, Los Arcos National Marine Park.
