On my first trip to Mexico (Cabo) i discovered fish and shrimp tacos. I thought I died and went to heaven. Where will I find the best in PV?

Re:fish taco?
You can get fish tacos on the beach at the little place in front of the Playa del Condos(next to the Tropicana Hotel). The restaurant is shaped like a boat and is more of a stand than restaurant.
Re:fish taco?
There are taco stands all over PV.....some are better than others. A very good friend of mine highly recommends the stand across from the Guadalajara Farmacia in Old Town with the blue scalloped awning. She said their shrimp and fish tacos are to die for.....and cheap. The best one I ever had was a shrimp taco at the El Dorado beach club on Playa El Anclote near Punta Mita. MMMM......my mouth is watering just thinking of it.

Write to me directly for info on other stands from another friend.

Just reading you guys talk about fish tacos is making my mouth water, ummm, ummm, are they good and in Vallarta you may go to 8 tostadas behind the blockbuster video, also there is a stand set up during the day on the Calle Naranja (as you come out of the tunnel going into town it is the first street on the left), are amazing. Oh and the best so far, Tacos Marlin in front of the airport, oh boy you will love these! All are cheap but a word of advice, be careful with eating off the stands on the street, check them out and make sure the fish is kept cool and all is clean, remember it is getting alot hotter in Vallarta now and since you are not used to it you could get sick, so stay with the places recommended to you.
Have Fun! Enjoy the tacos!

Just read the first answer to your query re: the boat in front of the Playa del Condos. The name is Playa del Sol. I have a condo in there.
