Gay Guide to Puerto Vallarta
Puerto Vallarta is Latin America's biggest gay beach destination, built around the Zona Romántica, the walkable gayborhood spanning the Emiliano Zapata, Alta Vista, and Amapas colonias. Los Muertos Beach and its Mantamar Beach Club anchor the daytime scene, while a dense strip of bars carries the nightlife, from Mr. Flamingo to the men's club Wet Dreams. Vallarta Pride lands in May with a free parade and a week of events. The town pairs the Pacific coast with cobblestone streets, an easygoing pace, and a scene that stays busy through the winter high season.
