Water
sports abound in and around Puerto Vallarta. Because
the waters of Banderas Bay are protected and calm,
swimming, parasailing and jet skiing are fantastic
from almost any beach. You'll find that diving and
snorkeling are the best at either the south end of
town toward Los Arcos, which is a natural preserve,
or in the northern area near Bucerias and Punta de
Mita, which is located near the northern point of
the bay. If you are the daring type you can Bungee
Jump from a platform built on a cliff out over the
Pacific. |
|
Fishing |
|
Puerto
Vallarta is not the best known or the most prolific
sport fishing destination in Mexico. But this
town is full of pleasant surprises. And one
of those surprises is the quality of sport fishing
that is available here. There are many options
available to a fisherman in Puerto Vallarta. |
|
Whale Watching
|
|
Banderas
Bay is home to it own colony of Humpback Whales.
Many tours are available to view these magnificent
mammals. |
|
Golf/Tennis |
|
Puerto
Vallarta is home to two 18 hole golf courses.
One, Marina Vallarta Club de Golf, is located at Marina
Vallarta and the other, Flamingos Golf Club, is located
near Nuevo Vallarta, a few miles north of the airport.
Also sitting all alone on the point of Punta de Mita
is a brand new Jack Nicklaus creation that is ready
for play but remains unopened at this time.
It will most likely be a private course. |
|
