South Shore
The South Shore of Puerto Vallarta is one of the most scenic and exclusive areas in the region. As you drive south along the coastal highway, the landscape transforms into lush green mountains, dramatic cliffs, and hidden beaches with crystal-clear waters.
This area is home to luxurious oceanfront villas, private residential developments, and boutique hotels that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. Some of the most popular beaches on the South Shore include Playa Palmares, Playa Conchas Chinas, and Mismaloya—each offering a unique charm and a peaceful atmosphere.
