“We are located right next door to one of Vallarta’s most popular restaurants.” The Ocean Grill, also accessible only by boat. They serve 3 seatings of lunch; 11.00 am, 1.00 pm and 3.00 pm only and we can assist with reservations.
A few bays along is the charming beach side bar, Maraika’s, a lovely place to sit and enjoy an sundowner cocktail and light food. One Bay further is the elegant Hotelito Mío which will prepare an exclusive gourmet lunch on the beach with advance notice. The hiking trail (45-1 hour) will take you to Las Animas, a rather touristy beach strip where touts will try to lure you to their place that pretty much serves the same food as everywhere else.We can show you the good ones.
MERCADO DEL MAR SEAFOOD MARKET
The fish market in the northern section of Centro is fascinating. There is a wide variety of fish and you are likely to find many that you have never heard of, let alone tried. The vendors are very knowledgeable, helpful and quick to offer advice on the best methods of preparation. It is definitely worth a half day trip for inquisitive “foodies”.
