Puerto Vallarta is one of the most romantic places on Earth. There’s nothing like watching the sunset over the ocean while witnessing the magical colors shimmering off of the windows of every house in town, as well as the waters of Banderas Bay.
The warmth of both the air, the sea and the people, make the city a great place to just stroll along the Malecon and enjoy an ice cream cone, or sit and enjoy a beer or a drink at one of the many beach bars along the way.

If you are into gourmet meals, that’s another great option for a romantic moment, at a restaurant by the beach or up in the hills with a spectacular view of the bay, the town, and the sunsets.
Right off the top of my head, I’ll list a few romantic ideas for your trip.
