Welcome to Puerto Vallarta

We docked in Puerto Vallarta for the day on our NCL Mexican Riviera cruise.  We spent the day snorkeling in a couple of locations and then visiting a local village with a climb through the village to a really really cold waterfall we went in.   Again these beach towns are really there for extended beach vacations.   Beautiful area.
