    I have a boat tourism business here for private group tours (Boca Boat Tours), and agree with many of your choices. There is much more to the southern shores than Yelapa. There are Boca de Tomatlan, Las Animas, Quimixto, Majahuitas, Los Arcos, waterfalls, horseback riding, and more. The area offers so much beauty, fun, and life-long memories!

    Fun facts: The sleepy fishing village of Puerto Vallarta rapidly became an American tourist vacation hot-spot after the media hype that Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were secretly having an affair while Burton was there filming "The Night of the Iguana". (Pretty cool movie for black and white) Burton was married to another famous star at the time! Also, in 1995 a large earthquake hit PV and toppled the crown off of the famous church in town. Rumor has it that Ms. Taylor paid to have it rebuilt and the cross at the top is made of designer crystal.. Parts of "Predator" were also filmed there and a restaurant with cliff divers is dedicated to celebrating that fact at Mismaloya. (South of the city in the jungle) The Barcelo hotel in Mismaloya was formerly called the "la Jolla de Mismaloya" and after researching it's meaning I was delighted to learn that it literally means "The caves where they catch fish with the hands" referencing "los Arcos" (Another popular attraction south of the city)
