Velas Vallarta - Frequently Asked Questions

Puerto Vallarta and Nuevo Vallarta are located on Mexico's Pacific coast, on the Banderas Bay. The biggest difference is that Nuevo Vallarta has more golf courses, resorts, and vacation rentals. On the other hand, Puerto Vallarta is well-known for its shopping, dining, and culture. When it comes to beaches, the difference between Nuevo Vallarta and Puerto Vallarta is that the beaches in Puerto Vallarta are shorter stretches of sand broken up by craggy rocks. While the majority of the beaches are lush and tranquil, long walks on the beach are best taken in Riviera Nayarit where the beach stretches on for miles.
