25 miles of secluded coastline
A friendly welcome, excellent nightlife and top-quality beaches all go to make a Puerto Vallarta holiday from The Co-operative Travel a sound choice.
Located on the Pacific Coast of Mexico in the state of Jalisco, Puerto Vallarta is a major tourist destination which has nevertheless retained its traditional charms. Among significant recent developments have been five new golf courses, but it’s mainly for the 25 miles of secluded coastline featuring beaches varying wildly in character that a Puerto Vallarta package holiday or all inclusive holiday has become so popular.
These beaches make great spots for diving or snorkelling, while by complete contrast, the nearby jungle allows you to experience all extremes of the tropical climate, and perhaps take shelter if necessary in the Jungle Restaurant or nearby tequila distillery.
The whole family will enjoy a visit to the Splash waterpark, where there are no fewer than 12 large slides and seven smaller ones for the children, and shows regularly take place starring the park’s dolphins, sea lions and exotic birds.
The Marina Vallarta is the largest in Mexico, and a stopping-off point for many exotic craft. Nearby, a golf course, tennis courts, art galleries, restaurants and shops cater for this well-heeled clientele.

fine dining and nightlife in puerto vallarta
In addition to traditional Mexican food, restaurants cover a range of international styles, including Italian, Chinese, French and Greek. The locally-caught seafood takes pride of place on many menus, and is especially recommended.
Puerto Vallarta is a popular all-inclusive holiday and package holiday destination, thanks to its varied coastline. You can take a walking tour to appreciate it fully, which starts from the Malecon seahorse, a statue on the edge of Banderas Bay which has become a local icon. The town also proudly displays many other public works of art.
Night-time options are plentiful in Puerto Vallarta, with a good choice of lively bars, but also several romantic beachside terraces where you can soak up the beauty of the coastline. You could even take a midnight cruise and sip cocktails while savouring a different view of the shore. You might even be lucky enough to spot whales or dolphins as you do so!
