Occupying the same latitude as Hawaii, Puerto Vallarta boasts more than 300 sunny days a year with an average temperature of 82 degrees Fahrenheit. So this tropical locale is best suited for a beach vacation. Most of the resorts have their own stretch of sand, but you might also want to take a water taxi to the southern shores of Bahia de Banderas and the pearly white sands of Yelapa. The crescent shaped beach is hemmed in by the mountains, thwarting car traffic and keeping the beach population to a minimum.
