Map of Mexico

Puerto Vallarta is in the center of the Mexican Pacific and protected by the second largest bay in the American continent. Romance is in the air in Puerto Vallarta with the cobble stoned streets, white walled houses and colonial charm blended with modern cosmopolitan features. The beaches are beautiful and there are plenty of opportunities for recreation including boat rides around the bay to watch dolphins, turtles and humpbacked whales.
