New York May 2, 2012
– Trip Advisor’s Traveler’s Choice awards have chosen Puerto Vallarta as the #9 Beach Destination and the number one overall destination in Mexico.
Puerto Vallarta finished ninth in the Top 10 Beach Destinations thanks to its "golden beaches and indigo waters" said Trip Advisor.com. Among Vallarta’s most well known beaches is Los Muertos, located steps from the Old Town or Zona Romántica where visitors will find a vast variety of restaurants, bars, galleries, boutiques and souvenir shops. Majahuitas, a white sand dreamy vacation spot, lies at the foot of a lush jungle populated by a rich wildlife. Lastly, there is Yelapa, a traditional and remote fishing village accessible only by water taxi. Yelapa is the perfect place to get away from it all and spend the day exploring the surrounding jungle, scuba diving or fishing. Surfing and kite surfing enthusiasts in the know head to Sayulita, a 15 minute drive north of Puerto Vallarta’s International airport, for the perfect swell and wind conditions.
