AREA INFORMATION Puerto Vallarta is very accessible on foot, it is easy to walk everywhere in Old Town. The Malecon sea wall, Main Plaza and Cathedral of Guadalupe downtown are located in the heart of the city. This area offers a wide variety of upscale boutiques, world class restaurants and high end art galleries. The main public beach in town, Los Muertos Beach, is in the “Romantic Zone” and runs parallel to Olas Altas street, just a 10 minute walk south of downtown, a quaint area with sidewalk cafes, resort clothing stores, coffee shops and internet cafes. Basilio Badillo or “Restaurant Row” is also in the Romantic Zone and is lined with unique jewelry and clothing stores, art galleries and popularrestaurants. The famous Gringo Gulch area downtown is quite picturesque with winding cobblestone streets and unique old world charm. The exclusive neighborhood was named for the influx of North Americans that invaded the narrow river road and created an artistic and happening scene after the wild publicity generated from the filming of Night of the Iguana in 1963. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton owned a vacation home in this area until his death in 1984, called Casa Kimberley. It has been kept intact by the new owners, tours are available. Los Muertos Beach is the most popular beach and the center of daytime activity, also a favorite for sunset. A place where tourists and locals effortlessly mix, it is the top gathering spot for all ages and features some of the best restaurants in town, several with beautiful palapas situated right on the sand, 20 feet from the water. Los Muertos is what makes Vallarta unique from most Mexican resorts. You can sunbathe and swim in a public area while waiters bring you food and drink. Los Muertos also has all kinds of water sports for rent: wave runners, parasailing, banana boats, fishing charters etc. The Water Taxi leaves Los Muertos pier every morning at 10 am for the beautiful beaches on the south part of they bay only accessible by boat. We highly recommend visiting Las Animas, Quimixto and especially the bohemian paradise of Yelapa. You can also take the water taxi from Boca de Tomatlan, the last cove on Banderas Bay accessible by car or bus. Seeing the bay from the water is a must and a water taxi ride to Yelapa is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to do it.
