Leisure activities in Puerto Vallarta
This holiday region is not yet so overcrowded and has a good tourist offer for holidaymakers. On well-organized tours or individual trips with a hire car unique natural spectacles can be discovered.
Humpback whales and dolphins are often spotted off the coast of Puerto Vallarta and with a little patience tourists can also watch sea turtles laying their eggs on the beach.
A real adventure is experienced by visitors to the Huichol Indians. This mysterious Indian tribe has remained steadfast to its traditions to this day. Once a year, they collect the peyote cactus, which induces hallucinations when eaten. The triggered effect allows the Indians to craft cultural treasures.
Vacationers in Puerto Vallarta can also immerse themselves in the Mexican flair with folkloric performances by the Voladores de Papantla or the Mariachi.
