Maybe
it was the lush tropical
climate, or the white sandy
beaches that first caught the
eye of tourists who began to
flock to this Mexican paradise
in the late 19th century. Or
maybe it was something more that
made John Huston choose Puerto
Vallarta as the setting for “The
Night of the Iguana” (and the
headline-grabbing, off-screen
romance of Elizabeth Taylor and
Richard Burton).
With so much that Puerto
Vallarta has to offer, every
moment in this beautiful
vacation spot can be shaped to
meet your individual desires.
Find yourself strolling back in
time as you meander down the
streets of the historic area of
town, or the village of San
Sebastian (15 minutes by plane)
or follow your own steps to the
rhythms of the Mariachi.
Your
eyes can feast on beautiful
textiles, original works of art
from local artists and all over
the globe, or the breathtaking
beadwork of the Huichol Indians.
Your mouth will water with
anticipation for the authentic
Mexican cuisine, while chefs
from around the world serve up
delicacies in renowned
international restaurants. You
may seek out the pristine white
sand of the beach, or do your
best to avoid it on one of seven
exceptional golf courses.
With ample opportunities for
activity at every turn, your
adventurous side will never go
unfulfilled, unless, or course,
you want to give it a rest. In
that case, Puerto Vallarta is
the ideal location for glorious,
sun-soaked inactivity.
