Travelogue – Punta Mita, Mexico
Last summer after our couple of days in Mexico City, we travelled right across the country to visit Punta Mita on Mexico’s Pacific Coast, a quaint fisherman’s town located 40 minutes north of much more developed Puerto Vallarta.
Once an important and sacred Indian meeting site, Punta Mita is a jagged finger of land that juts out into the open ocean straddling the Pacific and Banderas Bay. The beaches are magnificent, although Bermuda’s are better, with rocky coves and plenty of water sport activities. Our daughter had a wind surfing lesson whilst we were there. I have no idea where she gets her sense of adventure from!
Punta Mita is dominated by two large upscale hotels, the St Regis and the Four Seasons, and I imagine a decade or so ago developers offered the village fishermen money they could only dream off to move them a bit further away up the coast.
