| Caption | Coastal community on the shore of Banderas Bay 20 minutes’ drive north of Puerto Vallarta. As a developing, working class satellite city it also has a significant Gringo population of foreign retirees with a Canadian emphasis. Very popular holiday destination for national tourists. Long, open, shallow shelving beach; very safe swimming. Plenty of shoreline restaurants and tourist fodder. Dirt roads and high class dining in the same neighborhood. Another real estate hotspot for the median market. The Huichol of the Sierra Nayarit come here to sell there wares. They consistently maintain their traditions of dress, art and culture which appeal to the tourist industry that both supports and destroys them. |
