And the praise came as no surprise to the large expat community living in Banderas Bay, because there are so many reasons that the region is a snowbird’s paradise.

While making the effort to learn some Spanish is a great idea, English is so widely spoken in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit that it’s easy to avoid a language barrier.  And people here are so friendly that even those who don’t speak English will go out of their way with smiles and sign language to ensure that you can communicate.

And Puerto Vallartais famous for being a tourist destination that has maintained its charm as a Mexican town.  Between Puerto Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta and the region that surrounds them, there are endless restaurants, galleries, shops, activities and adventures to provide a never-ending supply of entertainment.

With a near perfect year-round climate, a favorable cost of living, security and such easy access from the USA and Canada due to so many direct flightoptions offered by airlines like Continental, American, Alaska, and Westjet, it’s not hard to understand why so many snowbirds are making Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit their first choice destination.
