Excellent portrayal of the many beach options along the Bay.

The best video about the beaches in puerto vallarta congratulations.

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Thank you very much for your kind words 👍. KZbin doesn't seem to think so based on the reach and views it's gotten 😁 Hopefully it can change sometime soon 🙂

Best video I have seen so far of the beaches in town. Thank you

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Glad you liked and appreciated it. It was a lot of work, but I am proud of the result. It'll be even better when I make a new one in 2024 with up-to-date videos and data.

Disculpa cuales playas son las mas tranquilas (quiero decir, sin tanta ola)

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Depende mucho del clima y el viento ese día. Hay unos mejor protegidos o que he visto con menos olas. Destiladeras, Mismaloya, Colomitos, Yelapa, pero varía mucho.

Awesome thanks!!

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Glad that you enjoyed it 🙂

[@RebeccaBartha]

great video but what about playa esmeralda? between los muertos and conchas chinas. I was hoping to visit that one is it not good?

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

It's a nice beach, just didn't make the cut, here's a video where you can check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWW4dKuXe5WhY7c&si=seQLVNL-Ksqbmz7B Access is complicated, there aren't any services there, so you need to consider that.

[@arlenerubenstein6762]

Perfect! This exactly what I was looking for. I’ve been coming to PV for the last seven years but never knew the access points of the area beaches. Thank you so much! Will share with friends.

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Thanks Arlene! 🙂 Glad that was useful. Yes, when it comes to most beaches in Puerto Vallarta, access is easy. Not the case with the El Salado Beach at Marina Vallarta (over the rocks), nor Las Estacas (no access that I know of) which is why I don't include them here. A complete list of more than 50 beaches, maps, access points and tips here: www.puertovallarta.net/what_to_do/puerto-vallarta-beaches/ - Greetings and have a great trip!

thanks for the video , just curious is there a free showers and washrooms around these beaches?

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

Playa de Oro: Yes at the public access point midway along the beach. goo.gl/maps/KDHuLZBpyhNnVb8q9 Los Tules: Yes on the northern access by the Pitillal River and by the southernmost access point). goo.gl/maps/VbapP9AXY6vjuAN8A & goo.gl/maps/NRayriY1jNvTwVmE8 Camarones: yes, at the public access point goo.gl/maps/3YRJZcTUHPpULybg7 Olas Altas, there are many restaurants and bars, you can find a place there or go to the Lazaro Cardenas Park goo.gl/maps/X5NtidouuHMseDqY8 Los Muertos, same as Olas Altas Conchas Chinas, does not have a place I know of, but in that case I'd go get a drink or some food at LindoMar and use their bathroom. goo.gl/maps/rVvFpyHPFButwwPL6 Palmares, yes, they also have changers and showers. By the ramp for wheelchair access goo.gl/maps/e9E3g4KXvFRFgA3J9 Garza Blanca, not that I know of... maybe you can negotiate something with the hotel... but I doubt it... not good. Las Gemelas, not on the beach itself. If necessary I'd go to the Restaurant at Girasoles get a drink and a bite and use their bathrooms: goo.gl/maps/sfgQVnqxr7VARK3s7 Mismaloya beach, yes there are lots of options there. Boca de Tomatlán, yes, right on the Malecon there are showers there too goo.gl/maps/Z8sF7dT5RYdooga97 Hope that helps. Greetings

[@FLYING_ROBOT]

I heard there are Crocodiles in the beach from the river is that true

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

I've heard of crocodiles close to Boca de Tomates, the northernmost beach in the municipality (not well-known nor much used by tourists), not in the normal beaches people use when they are in town.

[@victorzhong2890]

Is there any fee to get into these beaches?

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

No fees, all with public access. If you arrive driving, you may end up paying for parking though. I always go via Uber or public transport to avoid the hassle.

Great info Would like a printed map

[@PuertoVallartaVideos]

That's actually an idea, a PDF map... 🤔
