5 Puerto Vallarta beaches you must visit
Playa Los Muertos
Perhaps the most iconic beach in the region. Located within the Romantic Zone, you’ll find a festive atmosphere with a wide variety of options to experience the nightlife. If you decide to visit, make sure to go to the iconic pier, where you can take wonderful photos or simply enjoy the scenery.
Playa Conchas Chinas
Among the region’s best-kept secrets, this beach is one of them. Popular for enjoying the environment without crowds, as well as for the rock formations that create tide pools—making it ideal for relaxing or deeply exploring the natural landscape.
Also, since it’s not as crowded (except on weekends), it’s ideal for a romantic experience or, if you want something more adventurous, you can snorkel or try other water sports.
Playa Garza Blanca
Known for its emerald-green waters and for being bounded by a rock breakwater. The name of this Puerto Vallarta beach comes from the presence of white-plumaged herons. Here you can do activities like snorkeling or paddleboarding, or simply sunbathe while you enjoy the sunshine.

Playa Mismaloya
Just 50 minutes south of downtown Puerto Vallarta, you can visit the rocky islands that make up Los Arcos Marine National Park, and dive or snorkel among varied, colorful marine life. Or, if you prefer, you can enjoy a tequila tour to visit several bars in the city.
Playa Las Caletas
This small paradise is located south of Puerto Vallarta. Here you can relax in hammocks while enjoying the coastal jungle landscape. If you’re looking for a place to relax and be pampered, Las Caletas is the best option, since its wide variety of activities lets you live extreme adventure or something calmer like swimming with sea lions, taking a guided nature walk, and much more.
As you can see, in Puerto Vallarta’s charming beaches you’ll find the perfect plan for you, whether you just want to relax, have a romantic moment with your partner, or simply have a blast while enjoying tropical comforts on your next vacation.
