Puerto Vallarta: Beach Scene

Going to the beach wasn't in my plans for any of the port of calls for this cruise. I was more interested in seeing the downtown or old town where I can experience some local color. However, in Puerto Vallarta our guide stopped the van a block from the beach. Actually, he pulled over by the shopping district and pointed to the direction of the beach. He said in the alloted time we could either shop or walk the beach. We opted for the latter. And boy was that a good decision.

And while scoping the scene and soaking up the atmosphere, something delicious wafted straight into my nostrils. We followed the scent, and found there is a make shift bbq that serves grilled tacos and shrimp kebabs and coconut juice to wash all this all down (2 carnitas tacos + 1 shrimp kebab + 1 coconut = 15 Mexican pesos or roughly $2).

Your order is 15 pesos senor, go grab a seat on the beach and I'll bring you your food.

  2. The "beach" was an excellent choice as it gave you all these fine photo opportunities. Excellent series. The beach food sounded very good.

  5. The third shot is my favourite, it looks like a deserted beach and the boats are lovely.
