More than a beach town
Puerto Vallarta packs an entire country into one stretch of coastline. Here's the land you'll be exploring.

Where the Pacific turns turquoise
Banderas Bay is one of the largest and deepest bays in the world — a playground of hidden coves, coral reefs, and water so clear you can count the fish below your boat.

A rainforest that starts at the sand
Minutes from the beach, the Sierra Madre erupts into dense green canopy. Chase waterfalls, cross rope bridges, and ride trails that only the locals know.

Old silver towns in the clouds
Climb into the cool highlands to San Sebastián del Oeste, a colonial mining town frozen in time, where the coffee is grown a few steps from where it's poured.

The show that ends every day
There's a reason people gather on the Malecón each evening. When the sun drops into the Pacific, the whole sky catches fire — and the best seats are out on the water.
