Puerto Vallarta Beaches

There are 90-100 miles of sensational coastline (and an estimated 30-40 miles of sandy beaches) on Banderas Bay, the largest natural bay in Mexico and the seventh largest in the world. To add to the pleasure of these beaches from November to March, sightings of whales are common and dolphins are in the Bay all year round. Beaches to the north tend to be wider and longer with more opportunities for swimming and surfing. Beaches to the south tend to be beautiful sandy coves with the mountains coming right down to the sea.
