Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
This once-sleepy fishing village became a popular resort after The
Night of the Iguana was filmed here in 1964. Nestled on the 28-mile
curve of Banderas Bay, Puerto Vallarta has steadfastly held on to
its character. Red tile roofs and rows of balconies, spilling over
with colorful bougainvillea, still line its cobblestone streets.
A pleasure for both the eye and the camera.

you'll actually have the chance to swim with them in a specially
designed pool.

farmland, mangos, bananas and other tropical fruits.

Shopping for Bargains

exciting port, load up on papier mâché decorations, leather goods
and rare skins, embroidered cotton blouses, original ceramics, local
art and pre-Columbian replicas, and be sure to take home a bottle
of Kahlua, the Mexican coffee liqueur. The bay was originally developed
as a port to transport silver from nearby mines, and fine sterling
silver jewelry still abounds at bargain prices in Puerto Vallarta.
