You arrive in Nuevo Vallarta to start your vacation and you can’t wait to discover what this beautiful city has to offer. You leave your bags at the hotel, rest a bit and get ready to go exploring. As a resort, Nuevo Vallarta is characterized by its beautiful beaches and enormous gastronomic offer. You can start with a day at the beach in Mismaloya, a small beach of only 250 meters but with stunning natural beauty. Here you can rest on the sand, drink cocktails or practice water skiing. In Mismaloya you will also find a small zoo and a botanical garden with native flora and fauna species.
On your second day, we suggest you visit Punta de Mita. With ten kilometers of dazzling white beaches and crystal clear waters, this bay is a great option to spend the day lounging on the sand, enjoying local food or enjoying a spa service. Characterized by its high-level tourism, Punta Mita has golf courses and high-class restaurants to feel the true luxury of Mexican tourism.
It is your third day in Nuevo Vallarta and you cannot miss this wonder of nature: the hidden beach of the Marietta Islands. This amazing beach is literally inside a cavern, product of the detonations made in the area many years ago. The result is a hidden paradise of crystal clear water and white sand inside a cavern from which you can see the sky. An unmissable experience.

You have decided to stay two more days in Nuevo Vallarta and for your sixth day we recommend that you visit the famous Plaza de Armas. Every city in Mexico has a Plaza near the center that, for generations, has served as a meeting place to hang out, have dinner, make or observe art and participate in cultural traditions. There you can enjoy meals, artistic events and even tour the traditional market that invariably surrounds it. It is the ideal place to interact with the locals and spend a relaxed day. In addition, we recommend that you visit the Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe. This church was built with a neoclassical style and Renaissance towers. Its construction began in 1903 and had to stop in 1926, when a conflict between the Church and the State openly broke out, the famous Cristero War, which ended in 1929. In 1965 a beautiful crown was placed on its main tower, adorned with figures of angels and an exquisite artistic detail in its elaboration. Construction finished in 1987 under the supervision of Father Ramírez, leaving as a testament this beautiful building that mixes neoclassical, quasi-baroque and slightly Renaissance styles.
You have reached your last day in Nuevo Vallarta and, to say goodbye in a big way, we recommend that you visit the Los Arcos Marine Park. This place, cataloged in 1984 as a Marine National Park, is located to the south of the Bahía de las Banderas and is a wonderful place to dive and snorkel. It is located between the Mismaloya and Las Gemelas beaches and there you can enjoy caves, deep tunnels, arches and reefs of impressive size and color. Its depth varies between 9 and 480 meters. You will be able to observe from silly birds and parakeets to a great diversity of marine fauna.
