A short cab ride or Uber. Try the Ferry from Paradise Village Marina.

I have traveled to Puerto Vallarta, my “home away from home” for nearly 25 years. The Puerto Vallarta/Riviera Nayarit region boasts ideal weather. There are so many reasons to love this place: its culture, its people, its beaches and, of course, the food. The average daily temperature is about 80F with a breeze. Nights are generally cool and balmy and sleeping with a ceiling fan is often sufficient; although if you need it, we do have air conditioning. The restaurants and markets provide for great variety of fantastic food options—from Mexican to Italian to Thai. The Banderas Bay region appeals to all types: it is senior friendly, gay friendly, single women friendly, couples friendly, family friendly… even dog friendly. You rarely need a car because public transportation (buses, taxis, Ubers and Lyfts, and collectivos) is efficient and cheap. Here's my update of where to spend, splurge and make the most of your visit to the Bay of Banderas. Every year, I make it my goal to discover new things and pass them onto you. You won’t likely find many of these off-the beaten-path discoveries in your average guidebook. Although it focuses primarily on the Zona Romantica, there are some suggestions for day trips to the jungle, nearby magical towns, and a boat trip to the fishing village, Yelapa. This guidebook will provide you with some suggestions and recommendations for restaurants, bars and clubs, things to do, and practical information. However, the best thing to do in Puerto Vallarta is to just get lost. Wander the cobblestone streets of the Zona Romantica, check out the craft stores in El Pitillal, or chill in a cafe in Versailles – put down your phone and put away the map. The neighborhoods, especially Zona Romantica – are generally safe – both day and night – so long as you follow simple guidelines and take practical precautions, as set forth in this guidebook.

Love going to the Malecon (boardwalk) in Puerto Vallarta, especially on Saturday nights. It is always entertaining.
