Not to miss

Museo del Cuale

Puerto Vallarta has a growing number of cultural attractions, of which the art galleries are definitely a highlight. The tiny Museo del Cuale has a small collection of beautiful pottery, grinding stones, clay figurines and other ancient objects, as well as changing art exhibitions.

Plaza Principal

The heart of Zona Centro is Plaza Principal, also called Plaza de Armas. Just near the sea, it's the perfect spot for contemplating life. On the sea side of the plaza is an outdoor amphitheater backed by Los Arcos (The Arches). The wide malecón (waterfront boulevard) stretches about 10 blocks north from here and is dotted with bars, restaurants, nightclubs and boutiques.
