A new whale sculpture by Octavio González was recently installed in Marina Vallarta, at the end of Popa St., across from Nima Bay. In addition, new lighting fixtures were installed along the boardwalk to enhance this popular neighborhood at night. The artist is also well known for the iconic whale sculpture located at the entrance entrance of Marina Vallarta, along Fco. Medina Ascencio Ave.

s-marina-vallarta-whale-2 Puerto Vallarta’s Mayor, Arturo Dávalos, was present at the inauguration along with other dignataries, including Enrique Camargo, president of the Marina Vallarta Residents Association. “With this second whale sculpture we intend to move forward until we have the world’s largest bronce whale sculpture collection in the world, with more of them installed along Paseo de la Marina, from Tres Mares Condominiums to Bay View Grand,” he announced.

Marina Vallarta, in Puerto Vallarta, was developed in the late 1980s and at the time was one of the first mega developments in Mexico. Today, it’s a pleasant residential neighborhood with spectacular oceanfront hotels, such as the CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa, and The Westin Resort & Spa Puerto Vallarta. Strolling along its wide malecón or boardwalk is a treat, day or night, with a myriad restaurants available to relax and take in the view. It takes approximately 15 to complete a leisurely stroll from one and of the boardwalk to the other. To give you a taste, we’ve walked it for you, and condensed the activity into a one-minute video. Enjoy!

“In a meeting that we had with the magazine’s founder, he told us about his dream of making a quality and luxury publication because he was convinced that Puerto Vallarta needed that. For that reason, we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles since its beginnings. These days, our brand is very well positioned thanks to the strategic distribution of the magazine, as it helps us reach more potential customers which is a great benefit for us.”

“We have been clients of Vallarta Lifestyles since 1999, the year in which we arrived to this destination. Back then, it was the only publication where you could really do local marketing. These days, in spite of the arrival of new technologies, we keep advertising, because it is a really important complement for our marketing strategy.”

“We started advertising in Vallarta Lifestyles because we really liked the quality. Actually, it is still the best magazine of Puerto Vallarta, because of its spectacular articles and photos. Thanks to its distribution points at famous hotels, it is the ideal publication to reach the clients we are looking for.”
