Puerto Vallarta Gay Pride Week May 2024
LGBTQ+ Tourism Makes Up 40% of Vallarta’s Tourism GDP
Puerto Vallarta has always been a welcoming haven for LGBTQ+ travelers. Now, the undeniable impact of this community on the city’s finances is finally clear.
In 2023, a record-breaking 2 million LGBTQ+ tourists visited Puerto Vallarta, according to data released by the Puerto Vallarta Tourism Trust. This influx injected a whopping $17 billion pesos into the local economy.
“Vallarta Pride stands as the most significant LGBT+ pride celebration on a beach in North America,” explained Raúl Alfaro Segovia, managing partner of RPA, the public relations firm managing the event. “Furthermore, Puerto Vallarta holds membership in the International LGBTQ+ Travel Association (IGLTA), solidifying its commitment to this vital market.”
The upcoming Vallarta Pride boasts a diverse schedule, including:
- A flag raising ceremony and recognition of Kenya Cuevas as LGBT+ Activist of the Year (May 23rd, Lázaro Cárdenas Park).
- A retrospective fashion show by Mexican designer Armando Mafud (May 21st, Industry Club, Zona Romántica).
- The “Pride Sun Festival,” a social and commercial event running from May 23rd to 25th at Lázaro Cárdenas Park.
- The “Rainbow Pride” race, a 3km and 6km run along the Malecón (May 25th).
- The official pride parade, led by activist Kenya Cuevas, featuring over 55 floats (May 25th).
- The “Pride Beach Party” for community connection and celebration (May 25th, Olas Altas Beach).
- An art auction benefiting the Arte Vallarta Museo association (May 26th, Púlpito Street).

GREAT Hamburgers at Hamburgo PV in Versailles
I am always on a hunt for a GREAT BURGER! And so far, this place is the BEST that we have found, in Puerto Vallarta!
HAMBURGO PV is located in the Versalles neighborhood. (Versalles actually has a growing number of restaurants’ that are super delicious!)
It’s a hidden gem! And tucked away with a few other restaurants down a long corridor. So there is very little street presence. Located at Hamburgo 150A. Upon arriving you will see a black iron gate advertising several restaurants inside this little hidden plaza-corridor. (And it’s basically next door to CHA, another great restaurant). You will see the Hamburgo sign, and also a sign for pizza and a German restaurant Pommes Bude.
BACK TO BURGERS! I love Picana meat and this place makes different burgers using picana meat and also skirt steak meat. We ordered one of each and honestly can not pick a favorite. They were both juicy and delicious! Also I wanted to try a pulled turkey burger/sandwich. (12-hour white wine marinated-grilled turkey!) Again very juicy, savory and very delicious! Some diner-style French fries are available. $40 pesos for large order and $20 pesos for small order. All of the burgers run from $120 pesos – $170 pesos! They have a Hawaiana burger, Falafel, pulled pork and many more. So it is very affordable and BYOB, if you want an adult beverage!
I wanted a little something sweet after our HUGE meal! We tried the Chocolate empanada, served hot, with a scoop of homemade gelato. It was awesome!
You can scan the QR code below, it will take you to their whatsapp. From there, you can access the current menu at the top house/home icon. They are always trying new things and sometimes have specials. They also offer things like wings and tacos, both regular and deep fried! They have much more than what is listed on menu below!
The cook/chef (Rodrigo) is also the waiter.
Only 4, 4 top tables. But they also do to-go orders.
At the time of this writing, I think they are now open 7 days a week 2pm-10pm.
Puerto Vallarta’s Jorullo Point Glass Floor Observation Deck
WOW! How cool is this???
from PuertoVallarta.net & Debate.com.mx
Jorullo Point viewpoint is inaugurated, which can be accessed via a suspension bridge in Puerto Vallarta, providing views of the mountains, the Cuale River, and the ocean.
This viewpoint is part of the Canopy El Jorullo and Ejido ecotourism complex. Jorullo Viewpoint is located in the Canopy Ecotourism complex, situated in the Ejido El Jorullo, about 16 miles southeast of Puerto Vallarta. The focal point of this expansion is an innovative suspension bridge, 200 meters long and 100 meters high, designed for RZR vehicles and pedestrians, offering a unique and exhilarating experience at an altitude of 420 meters above sea level.
(Facebook photos Enrique Alfaro)
Upon crossing this bridge, visitors are welcomed by a relaxation area with a drink bar, a panoramic swing, and a glass-floored viewpoint, offering spectacular views of the Cuale Sierra, the Cuale River, and the sea.
Canopy El Jorullo aims to diversify the range of experiences in this sustainable ecotourism complex. In addition to thrilling attractions, the site features a hiking trail leading to the new point, accessible after a two-and-a-half-hour walk from the restaurant at the park’s entrance. (TWO AND A HALF HOURS???)
Construction of “El Jorullo Point” took a year and a half and is now open to the public through local tour operators and general access at the park entrance.

DÍA DE MUERTOS 2023 CELEBRATIONS
Puerto Vallarta is preparing for the annual celebration of the Day of the Dead Festival. SOON we will get to see the monumental Catrina erected on the esplanade of the Malecón Lighthouse during the ten days of celebrations in honor of the faithful deceased. “The Tallest Catrina in the World.” is a must-see! The monumental Catrina, stands 75.5 feet high.
The planned events will run Oct. 27th-Nov 5th
Surf Lesson’s and Hike’s in Sayulita with Adan Carano
How would you like to SURF???
and do the Hula Hoop?!
Visual artist ADAN CARANO can often be seen doing his amazing hula hoop show from Sayulita to Puerto Vallarta.
Based in Sayulita, Adan gives surf lessons! 1 hr and 30 minute class costs $1600 pesos. (About $90 US at the time of this writing). Why not get a group of gays together for a day in beautiful Sayulita and get in some surf time too?
A little over an hours drive, Sayulita is known for beaches with strong surf, like the central Sayulita Beach. To the west, Los Muertos Beach is more sheltered, sandwiched between protective rocks. Galleries in Sayulita sell artworks by Huichol indigenous people.
Sayulita also offers great street food, street entertainers, spas, street bars, tattoo artists, beach restaurants and shops everywhere in the midst of a natural setting between mountains and sea… something for everybody.
He can take you or your group on a 3 hour hike to Cerro del Mono (Monkey Mountain) ?
360 degree views from on top of the mountain! 3 hours / $1200 pesos
What about a BLACK SAND BEACH??
Patzcuaro is a gorgeous beach just southwest of Sayulita.
Playa Patzcuarito is one of Sayulita, Mexico’s most beautiful hidden gems, and is one of the most unique beaches in the Riviera Nayarit region. The beach doesn’t see a ton of visitors, as it lacks any kind of good road access and lies a bit out of the way for most people. That being said Playa Patzcuarito is surprisingly easy to get to and takes only 25-30 minutes on foot through the jungle. It is located north of the larger Playa Patzcuaro and south of Playa Carricitos, which are both also well worth a visit but require a bit more effort to get to. 3 hours / $400 pesos.
Get all the details on his WhatApp page 5213221383682
Sayulita is an awesome day trip and Adan can be your gay guide!
Feel free to make a request, and he will create a customized package for you!

Nahuales – A Mystical Night – Sundays!
ESCAPE to a private island for this sexy show!
It has been getting RAVE REVIEWS!
Your ticket includes access to a boat ride (approximately 45 minutes), an open bar, and food, local Mexican performers on a private beach. $120 and EVERYONE agrees it is well worth the experience!
Inspired by a Mexican legend from the Mesoamerican folk region, a nagual (pronounced na’wal), is a human who has the power to shapeshift into their animal counterpart. The legend is tied to the belief that one can access power and spiritual insight by connecting with their animal counterpart within.
We’ve taken that legend and created Nahuales, a Mystical Night – a show where our performers will find their animal counterparts, amazing you with their acrobatic talents.
This spectacular live performance features professional dancers and circus-like performances including a live fire dance. You’ll be amazed at the acrobatic performances held on a stage at a private beach.
The show is approximately 40 minutes long, and afterwards you’ll be able to meet and talk with each performer. A DJ will then take over and you can dance on the party stage and enjoy the evening on the secluded private beach. There are special guests planned for some shows, which may extend showtime.
Your ticket includes access to a boat ride (approximately 45 minutes), an open bar, and food prepared by authentic local Mexican residents of the island that you will visit.
When you arrive, the boat will dock at a pier, and once on the beach you can dance to music played by a local DJ, and watch the sunset while you enjoy an open bar, fruits, snacks and select one of three different types of Ceviches (including a vegetarian option).
After the sunsets the real show begins!
Your ticket to the show also supports local Mexican talent, since the show is produced and performed by all locals. Many of whom you may recognize from other local performances.

Puerto Vallarta #1 rated Food Tours
I have been coming to PV for almost 20 years now. While I know many business owners and a few locals who work in the service industry, I still do not know a whole lot about how the locals live.
By taking one of the many food tours offered by Vallarta Food Tours, in just 3-4 hours you learn so much, you will be in the know, like the locals! Taste local food, meet local people and visit hidden gems and places off the beaten touristy path. Taste food from street vendors who have been in business over 40 and 50 years!
Vallarta Food Tour’s mission is to help visitors and residents alike enjoy the best that Vallarta has to offer by highlighting off-the-beaten-path, “non-touristy” food and drinks along with a local insight of its treasures. Our love of Puerto Vallarta and Mexican culture inspired us to create the city’s finest culinary tour. We sampled the perfect mole, sipped on succulent tuba water and tasted fresh coconut from arguably the best coconut vendor in the country.
I took the Original Downtown Tour last month. $52 for adults. (For a couple dollars extra you even get a couple beers along the way!) You get 8 tastings of amazing regional cuisine, and that’s enough (more than enough!) to serve as a satisfying lunch. And you get a 3-4 hour cultural tour and walk of the city by an awesome tour guide who explains the food but also many local interesting tidbits of information and traditions.
There is a Bikes and Bites Tour. ($55). On a comfortable bike, cover 4.5 miles on this culinary tour, tasting regional dishes influenced by Aztec, Mayan, Toltec, Spanish and French cuisine. This tour is designed for moderate fitness levels. Prior cycling experience is required and all guests must be 18 or older.
Did someone say drinks?? Take the evening Mex-ology tour! Drink And Eat Your Way Through Downtown Vallarta. Tacos and Tequila are at the top of everyone’s list when they come to PV. This tour gives you both in one fun and food-filled evening. ($79).
- This 4-hour guided tour is perfect for dinner and will introduce you to the best indigenous spirits and regional cocktails in Vallarta.
- You will sample Tequila, Mezcal, Racilla, and local craft beer mixed into a regional cocktail by a master Mexican Mixologist. To keep you on your feet you will enjoy a few tacos along the way, including a one-of-a-kind seafood stuffed Jalapeño taco, carne asada taco, and more.
Vallarta Food Tours say, “Our goal is to ensure that all of our tour participants have a fantastic time and leave with a real confidence to continue their exploration of our beautiful city. We recommend taking our food tours at the start of your stay so you can take on the city armed with knowledge and insight of what makes Puerto Vallarta so beautiful, so vibrant and so special. We are proud to share our culinary discoveries with you. Let us take you on a 3-hour adventure, introduce you to the best of the best and help open up a bright and delicious new world just waiting to be explored!” –
We give them 5 PINK CROWNS!
Trip Advisor agrees as well!
