Puerto Vallarta is an artsy enlclave - lots of public modern art, like this statue of a seahorse that's become something of an icon on the edge of Banderas Bay downtown. Street vendors set up here and it's a popular meeting spot, as well as a good place to get your bearings for a walking tour around downtown Puerto Vallarta. Stroll east on the malecon and rest at the zocalo while admiring Our Lady of Guadalupe's cathedral steeple, drop into Hilo for a drink or Las Palomas for a fish taco (don't let the maitre d' monopolize you with talk of timeshare sales), or east to Fredy Tucan's for breakfast and over the Cuale into the Municipal Mercado for shopping, Daiquiri Dick's for lunch or Senor Frogs for a beer in a setting reminiscent of the pub you love in your college town.
