Puerto Vallarta Reopens Los Muertos Port after Renovation

Puerto Vallarta celebrated the reopening of the Los Muertos port following a $2.4 million makeover as part of the city’s downtown renovation program. “This icon of the city is a reflection of the modern and diverse products found in Puerto Vallarta,” said Ramón Guerrero Martinez, Puerto Vallarta’s mayor. “It is a sign of the thirst the city has for projects that will update and make Puerto Vallarta the best city to visit in the Pacific.”

Martinez was joined by Emilio González Marquez, governor of the state of Jalisco, and the state’s secretary of tourism, Aurelio López Rocha, for the ribbon-cutting ceremony which included performances by the folkloric ballet, Xiutla, a jazz orchestra and fireworks.

The new port features a pedestrian-friendly zone, a waterfront promenade, scenic lighting and a landing dock that can hold up to six medium-size boats, most of which will be able to bring guests to the many private beaches located around Banderas Bay.
