Where Mexico comes to life

Situated on Banderas Bay, this tropical paradise combines the old with the new in gracious style. Cobblestone streets wind through the town and art galleries and colorful boutiques are filled with Meican folk art and handicrafts. 
International cuisine can be found in any town, as well as in all resort hotels. Puerto Vallarta is divided into various tourist areas:
- Riviera Nayarit (formely Nuevo Vallarta), a self contained resort area, easily accessible to town and;
