Multiple gay bars and nightclubs are in a block radius of that crossing. The Gayborhood (Zona Romantica) in Puerto Vallarta comes together at the intersection of Lazaro Cardenas and Ignacio L. Blue Chairs, Sapphire Ocean Club, Ritmos Beach Club (often referred to as ‘green chairs’), and Mantamar Beach Club, a favorite of actress Zendaya, all offer drink, food and chair options for LGBTQ beach goers. If you want to hang at the gay beach (located not too far from the famous Playa Los Muertos Pier), you can check-in at one of the exclusive LGBT Beach clubs that front the gay beach area, or just lay a towel on the sand for free. Puerto Vallarta is the most popular gay beach destination in Mexico, and its LGBTQ popularity continues to grow. By night, a visit to this section of town immerses visitors in Puerto Vallarta’s eclectic gastronomic scene and high-energy, electric nightlife. By day, the beach is alive with activity, day parties and boat trips departing from iconic Los Muertos Pier. Playa Los Muertos - lined by beach clubs, bars and restaurants - is always happening. The bohemian Zona Romantica offers some of the most beautiful beaches in the city.
Puerto Vallarta is the only destination in Mexico where the historical colonial city center meets the sea. In the Hotel Zone, visitors will find side-by-side beaches that stretch along the all-inclusive properties, ideal for taking picture-perfect sunbaths, enjoying an afternoon cocktail or taking a sunset selfie.
