| | A crowded day at the Blue Chairs on Los Muertos Beach. |
Long sandy beaches filled with hot men from around the world, beautiful romantic ocean and mountain views, and a wide array of clubs and restaurants are like a pink magnet to Puerto Vallarta.
Situated on Mexico's west coast it is a popular stopping off point for gay cruises adding to the ever changing panorama of hunky men.
It is hard to believe that only a few years ago Puerto Vallarta was a small town based on agriculture and fishing.
All that changed in 1963, when Hollywood director John Huston chose his site for the filming of Tennessee Williams' "The Night of the Iguana"
Since then the population has grown from 12,500 to around 250,000 in 2002.
Yet, despite its rapid-fire growth Puerto Vallarta has managed to retain its charm. Cobblestone streets and white stucco houses give the old city a lovely European charm.
Wandering around on foot is easy, and Puerto Vallarta is one of the safest cities in North America.
There are plenty of wonderful gay hotels and bed and breakfasts -a favorite is Villa David, a lovely B&B at 348 Calle Galeana y Miramar.
Located in a quiet neighborhood it is within easy walking distance of all the finest attractions in Puerto Vallarta.
The hacienda-style home is built around a central courtyard in Gringo Gulch on the hillside overlooking the beautiful Bay of Banderas.
The popular Los Muertos Beach is approximately a ten-minute walk for daylight swimming, sunning and entertainment.
Puerto Vallarta night life is centered on the Malecon (Boardwalk) area which is also within easy walking distance, saving time as well as bus or taxi fare and providing a chance to enjoy the beautiful city on foot.
Staying in the town allows an opportunity to interface with the friendly Mexican people. |
