Explore PV
๐ฒ๐ถ๐๐... EVERYWHERE!!!
I have to put walking as #1 on the list of things to do in Puerto Vallarta. Exploring on foot is the best way to get a feel for the city, and most areas of PV are reachable by walking. This is a great way to see what the vendors are selling and explore PV, just make sure to wear good shoes as the sidewalks and roads are very uneven.

If youโre looking for a mini Cirque de Soleil-type cultural show and dinner experience, then you wonโt want to miss this! The evening starts with a sunset cruise (including open bar) across Banderas Bay to Las Caletas, which is a beautiful private cove. When you arrive, youโll be greeted by a beautifully lit area with tiki torches and candles. Youโll then be shown to your seat in the outdoor auditorium, which is surrounded by palm trees. The seats are all staggered, so even though there are people sitting in front of you, youโll have no issues seeing the show. The show depicts various stories of the ancient Hispanic civilization and Mexican folklore. During the performance, thereโs live music, dancing, contortionists, fire-twirlers, and more. Following the show, youโll enjoy a large buffet dinner before returning to Puerto Vallarta by boat. If youโre wondering what to do in Puerto Vallarta at night, this is it. Donโt miss this show!

Did you know that Mexicoโs cuisine has made the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO? This award hasnโt been granted to any other national food group! Mexican food is so much more than tacos and quesadillas and the best way to learn more about the tasty cuisine is to join a tour. In Puerto Vallarta, check out Vallarta Food Tours. This company offers a mix of culture, walking, and food tours, making it a great way to learn about the city of PV while simultaneously feasting and working off the calories. There are a few foodie tours on offer with Vallarta Food Tours, but โOriginal Downtown Tourโ, takes you through the center of PV on both sides of the river.

Just about a 20 min drive south of Puerto Vallarta. Playa las Gemelas has turquoise water and whitish sand! Bring a cooler filled with beer, water, and snacks, and spend the day remember there is nothing here but this beautiful beach not even toilets! To reach here, youโll want to park at Condominios Girasol Sur (in front along the road). There is no actual parking for the beach, so youโll need to find some on the street, or in the few roadside spots in front of Girasol Sur Condos. Alternatively, you can take a local bus and get dropped off here.
