Puerto Vallarta
Puerto Vallarta is a Pacific resort city on Bahía de Banderas. The wider municipality stretches beyond the city, from Boca de Tomatlán toward the Ameca River and Nayarit.
The bay provides the clearest way to place Puerto Vallarta in the region. The city belongs to Jalisco, while the Ameca River marks the municipality’s northern edge beside Nayarit. Boca de Tomatlán anchors its southern extent. These distinctions matter when comparing locations described broadly as being in the Puerto Vallarta area.
Useful to know
Check the actual location of a Puerto Vallarta-area address: the municipality extends well beyond the city.
