Daredevils can zipline through the trees, climb the mountains, and travel across the largest suspension bridge in Latin America, the Jurollo Bridge. 

Experience the Culture 

While in Puerta Vallarta, you must embrace the culture. Eat authentic Mexican street food and taste the gourmet cuisine outside of the resort. You should also visit local markets to buy homemade crafts and clothing while supporting the local economy. Don't forget to experience the nightlife as well. Puerta Vallarta has a different vibe from more relaxing tourist destinations, such as Cozumel, thanks to particularly exciting nightlife. Of course, you'll be able to relax the next day by relaxing at the beach/pool, shopping, or playing a round of golf.
