Puerto Vallarta Zoo

Even if being kissed on the lips by a full-grown giraffe is not your cup of tea, the Puerto Vallarta Zoo (Zoologico de Vallarta) in Mismaloya offers up-close and personal encounters with a variety of species, large and small, less than 25 minutes from downtown Puerto Vallarta. The brainchild of Antonio and Martin Castañeda from Guadalajara, the project was 10 years in the making before opening in September 2005. Since then, the Puerto Vallarta Zoo has endeavored to create natural habitats for over 500 animals, many of which are in danger of extinction.

Far from complete, the Puerto Vallarta Zoo is presently expanding its facilities with new habitats for its population, and a new building that will house an expanded veterinary clinic, administrative offices, and a brand-new restaurant with spectacular views of the jungle around it. Learn more about the Puerto Vallarta Zoo by visiting www.zoologicodevallarta.com.

“Vallarta Lifestyles, from its inception has been a quality reference. In some way, it has managed to consolidate the destination because all our restaurants where there and we communicate as an exchange platform. The benefit, besides advertisement and recommendation, is that this publication is a solid copy of Puerto Vallarta’s evolution. If you pick up an old issue, immediately you’ll recall precious memories.”

“Vallarta Lifestyles is really well positioned. We are aware of that because we have seen people who arrive to our jewelry with the issue or the advertising in hand asking about the product that is featured there. This dynamic is really interesting for us and makes us glad.”
