Playa Punta Negra, Puerto Vallarta

Playa Punta Negra, Puerto Vallarta

Playa Punta Negra is a truly mesmerizing beach that is situated along the southern coast of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico in the popular state of Jalisco. It is one of the nicer beaches in the region and is a favorite among locals. This is because of its near-perfect white sand and azure-colored waters that are great for swimming, snorkeling, and other water activities, as the water can be shallow for 20 meters out.

The beach features rocky outcroppings at the north end, where at low tide there are pools to explore that are teeming with sea life. At the south end of the beach there is another gorgeous slice of PV beach heaven called Playa Palmares, which is also well worth a visit. There are a few vendors that walk up and down the beach, with snacks and trinkets for sale, and near the entrance, you can buy fresh seafood and fruits.
