Rythym of the night!!!
You take a boat to this island at night and there's a live show there. We went there for our honeymoon. It was so awesome.

Also go to the hidden beach called playa del amor. You have to duck under the water and swim to get into the cave. It's pretty neat!

I agree Rhythm of the Night If you can time it right, take the excursion to the island during the day, there is snorkeling & scuba available. Bring a change of clothes for the evening.
Bucerias has a big market, town square, some history you might want to check out
Shelley
Pirate ship is great food and drinks
Lorelei
Estigo Tours for a quad ride through the city and up the mountainside. So much fun.
Sara
We did a zipline/ATV tour and we loved it! A bus picks you up anf takes you right there.
Lorene
I loved las caletas. Suggested a friend do but she did it at night and hated it. I'm not sure I'd enjoy it either. Really beautiful during the day.

PV is very easy and safe to get around on the bus. Old PV is the best. Don't bother pre booking excursions as there are lots of options in old PV just watch out for time shares. Rhythm of the nights is a must and have heard the day trip to the island is wonderful too. That would be the only one I might consider pre booking.

Just walk around the malecon..... its beautiful!! explore the cobblestone streets
Natasha
Definitely take a bus to Sayulita. You're missing out big time to skip that town!

PV is the best place in Mexico, Rhythm of the Night is a must, and definitely go to Old Town, people are friendly, good food, go look inside the Catholic Cathedral downtown,.

Hey guys. My boyfriend and I are going to Puerto Vallarta in a couple weeks. Trying to get ideas of things to do that we can plan. We're not staying on a resort. Preferably something easy to get to as we aren't renting a car.
Suggestions appreciated
