THE LOCATION
Puerto Vallarta is found in
the central region along the Pacific coastline of Mexico known as
"The Rivera." It is located in the northwest corner of the
state of Jalisco.
Vallarta traces its history
back to the 1500s, when it was visited by Spanish explorers. It later
became known as a respite for pirates plying the Pacific Coast. It
was not until 1851 that the area was first inhabited. By 1918 (the
year it was officially made a municipality), the village was a modest
fishing community. It was also a port for silver shipments from nearby
Cuale mines.
Today the city is graced with
lovely architecture, cobblestone streets and white stucco buildings
(by city ordinance, all buildings are white), crowned by flower-covered
balconies and red tile roof.
Its climate is temperate, but
with sub-tropical vegetation. Vallarta enjoys 345 days of sunshine
each year, with average daytime temperatures reaching into the high
80s, but at night, the onshore breeze from the Bay descends bringing
cool air and cool night temperatures. |
