Resort-style pampering, top-notch golf courses and a plethora of water sports await in Nuevo Vallarta, located 16 miles north of its more well-known Mexican sibling, Puerto Vallarta. Lounge on the golden-sand beaches of Banderas Bay or take an ATV tour through the nearby Sierra Madre jungle. Swim with dolphins, sample tequila and sail away into a brilliant sunsets. The local water park, with its twisting slides and sea lion shows, adds to the city's family- friendly appeal.
