NEAT FACT: Puerto Vallarta has 25 miles of beaches on Banderas Bay.


Here's a general description from Royal Caribbean's website:


This once-sleepy fishing village became a popular resort after The Night of the Iguana was filmed here in 1964. Nestled on the 28-mile curve of Banderas Bay, Puerto Vallarta has steadfastly held on to its character. Red tile roofs and rows of balconies, spilling over with colorful bougainvillea, still line its cobblestone streets. A pleasure for both the eye and the camera
