Riviera Nayarit on Discovery Channel

The Riviera Nayarit is kicking off the New Year with a world-class promotion: on January 1st and 8th, the very international Discovery Channel will air two programs on birdwatching filmed on Isabel Island, declared a Mexican National Park in 1980.

At precisely 7 a.m. on New Year’s Day, the second episode of Destination America, consisting of video filmed on the birds and nature endemic to the Riviera Nayarit, will air in 98 million homes. One week later the program will air again, giving Mexico’s Pacific Treasure exposure in over 170 countries.


The program description explains how James Currie’s team scoured western Mexico’s magnificent Riviera Nayarit coastline searching for the endemic black-throated magpie-jays. They also highlight beautiful Isabel Island, home to colonies of nesting sea birds, as well as close encounters with whale sharks off the coast of San Blas.

The shows were taped in February of 2013 after the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau arranged and coordinated the many details so the international host of Nikon’s Birding Adventures and expert bird watcher could come to the destination. The natural bounty of the historical port of San Blas made it possible to film two separate episodes about the Riviera Nayarit.

Discovery Channel is an educational cable channel with ample distribution in the United States with original programming primarily focusing on science and technology, documentaries and series. Versions of the Discovery Channel can be seen in the UK, Australia, Japan, Taiwan, India and other countries. Discovery Channel aired in 1985 as the flagship television property of Discovery Communications; today it offers 29 network brands in 33 languages.

Both episodes will also air on the Pursuit Channel, a producer of amply distributed channels geared towards outdoor pursuits. It reaches some 38 million homes.

Thus the Riviera Nayarit welcomes the New Year with a promotion that goes far beyond conventional advertising, offering the world the best type of publicity available: pictures that speak a thousand words.

When is the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta?

So much of what you are able to experience of a destination comes down to the timing of your visit, and this is the perfect week to be in Mexico as cities across the country celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

The festival is in remembrance of when the Virgin Mary left her image imprinted upon a cloth as a way of revealing herself and her identity to a Mexican peasant back in 1531 - the cloth is currently housed at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in México City, where one of the largest fiestas takes place.

Across the country, Mexican Catholics participate in parades that symbolize pilgrimages, making the journey from their homes to the church on foot as an offering to the Virgin Mary. Although religious tourism isn't exactly everyone's thing, you will be very pleased to be in town during this time because of all the other things that come along with it.

The official feast - and biggest party - is tonight, December 12th, but the streets of Puerto Vallarta have been festive every night for the past week, including food vendors (think tacos and tamales on every corner,) parades, music, singing, and dancing. Not only does it make it easy to get some street grub, but it gives visitors a chance to experience a very local side of the city.

Vallarta is a big tourist destination, but these two weeks after Thanksgiving and before the Christmas holiday are pretty thin. Walking the streets at night, this celebration is clearly for the locals - not tourists - and you will feel that you are truly getting an authentic view of how the Mexican people throw down in the name of the Lord. It is also a great time of year weather-wise, as the humidity of the summer has passed and temperatures sit in the 80s with a nice breeze.

While the hustle and bustle of the city is definitely a good thing, keep this in mind when you are booking a place to stay. If you find a hotel or room for rent downtown, don't plan on going to bed early or sleeping late, as the noise from the street continues well into the night and the church bells are rung what seems like on the hour, every hour.

Humpback whales visiting the waters of Banderas Bay

Come December the sounds of Humpback whale song can be heard once again in the protected waters of Banderas Bay.
These behemoths of the deep return to the breeding and calving grounds off Puerto Vallarta in December, and stay until their newborns are strong enough to begin their migration northwards to the rich feeding grounds off Alaska in March. Their presence in the bay provides locals and tourists alike the opportunity to go whale watching.

There are several companies which offer whale watching tours in Puerto Vallarta but before we make our recommendation let’s have a look at some typical whale behavior you may to see on the incredible adventure.

Breaching - The most spectacular of all whale behavior, the whale launches itself out of the water and lands on its side sending a massive spray of water into the air. This behavior may be a warning, a way of attracting a mate, or simply having fun.

Spy Hopping - When the whale raises its head out of the water, normally vertically to have a look at what is going on around them. Whales on the move will turn on their side with one eye out of the water to have a look.

Fin Slapping - The whale lies on its side and smacks its huge pectoral fin on the surface of the water repeatedly.

Lob Tailing - The whale raises its fluke or tail out of the water and slams it down onto the surface of the water. It is usually a repetitive movement considered to be a sign of aggression or perhaps a way of foraging.

Hopefully on a whale watching tour in Puerto Vallarta you get to see all of this typical whale behavior but be warned - seeing a whale is not always guaranteed and if you do see one they might not be in the mood to perform.

Why living in Puerto Vallarta is the best choice

Thinking of moving or retiring to somewhere warm? Puerto Vallarta, Mexico is an exceptional place to live. Those who regret the move are few and far between - the rest of us are loving life! Here are just a few reasons why:

1. The Climate
This is a no brainer. With an average temperature of 79° F /26° C and 300 sunny days a year, we have it made. Of course, June through October is just a smidge humid, giving everyone something to talk about, otherwise what excuse would we have to be loitering in the produce refrigerator at Costco?



2. The Views
Beaches, mountains, jungle, charming red tile-roofed homes meandering up the hillsides from the sea, from Mismaloya to Punta de Mita, there is a feast for the eyes waiting around every turn. Take in the sunset from a hillside restaurant or stay on the beach all day until the sky is aflame with color. A grand spectacle of nature is on display every evening, and it doesn't cost a thing.

A home of your own with a view of the ocean need not be a fantasy. All those hillsides make for great views in wide variety of price ranges. Properties with ocean views can be found as low as under $100,000 USD, and the $200-300,000 range is teeming with ocean view inventory. Start your search HERE.



3. The Whales
People sometimes overuse adjectives. For example:
"How was Zumba class this morning?"
"Amazing!!"
If you are fortunate enough to witness an adult whale breaching, it will leave you amazed. An adult humpback whale is over 40 feet long and weighs up to 75,000 pounds, one of the largest animals on the planet. See this magnificent animal launch it's entire body out of the sea, pivot mid-air, and crash back into the sea with thunderous splash, and know what it is to be amazed. Contact Superior Tours Vallarta to book your Puerto Vallarta whale watching tour.

4. Medical Services
"#4" circa 1992 would likely have been a list of bars that offer free drinks on ladies night. Times have changed. Now I appreciate how fortunate we are to have excellent doctors, dentists, state of the art hospitals and medical facilities here when we need them. As well, there is a wide array of all types of medical services from alternative treatments like acupuncture and reiki to elective procedures like face lifts and botox, all at a fraction of the cost.



5. The Restaurants
Puerto Vallarta is home to the best restaurants of ANY tourist destination in Mexico. Anyone who wishes to challenge that statement feel free to send an email to betty(at)tropicasa.com. and I am up for the challenge. I will gladly supply you with an extensive list of restaurants in all price ranges, including cuisine from just about any region. Within a ten-block radius in downtown you can find Trio, Joe Jack's, Archie's Wok, Daiquiri Dick's, Salud, La Palapa, Vitea, and Kaiser Maximilian just to name a few, and the list goes on.



6. The Lifestyle
You like to indulge in a massage? How about $30 USD for an hour-long full body massage? You like to golf? 6 world-class golf courses are available. Tired of doing housework? Hire a housekeeper, as an added bonus - you'll likely be speaking Spanish with her in no time. Even a day at the beach is better in Mexico. Arrive to cozy chairs under a palapa and a friendly waiter brings you margaritas.

Want more from life than just margaritas and massages? Nurture your altruistic spirit. There are a number of charitable organizations in Puerto Vallarta and around Banderas Bay that welcome volunteers. Get started HERE.

What's not to like? Even the frustrating moments could be considered lessons in patience. And someday, through a kind of cultural osmosis, you may be blessed with the gift of not minding very much if the Telmex guy didn't show up for a week, or the Wi-fi service on your smart phone is spotty. The day may come when "mañana" for you is a loose term used to refer to any number of days to come and when "al rato" (loosely translated "in a bit") is as specific a time frame as you require. We should all be so lucky.

Puerto Vallarta's celebration: 50 Years of 'Night of The Iguana'

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - If ever a movie transformed a town, Night of the Iguana was the one that turned Puerto Vallarta from an anonymous fishing hamlet into a magnet for tourists and a regular stop for luxury liners sailing the Mexican Riviera.

Fifty years ago, when John Huston filmed Night of the Iguana with Richard Burton and Ava Gardner in a picturesque cove just south of town called Mismaloya, Puerto Vallarta was just a sleepy little fishing village on Mexico's Pacific Coast.

But Liz Taylor came to keep an eye on her lover Richard Burton while he was filming with the voluptuous Ava Gardner. The publicity buzz about Burton and Liz’s torrid affair and the movie put Puerto Vallarta on the tourist - and the paparazzi's - map.

When the director arrived (legend claims his plane skimmed the runway several times, before managing to shoo cows off the landing strip,) the rustic fishing village had just 12,500 inhabitants. Today, (according to the 2010 census,) Puerto Vallarta is a world-class vacation destination with a population of 255,725, (making it the 2nd largest city in the state of Jalisco,) and tourism accounts for 50% of the city's economic activity.

To celebrate the impact that the making of this film has made on our city, the Centro Universitario de la Costa in Puerto Vallarta (CUC), in conjunction with private citizens and governmental authorities, will present a series of conferences, lectures, and film screenings, as well as photo, audio, and video exhibitions relating to the 1963 filming of the movie from November 25 through 29, 2013.

Some of the Night of the Iguana Tribute events scheduled to take place include:

• A variety of movies starring the main protagonists of the film (John Huston, Richard Burton, Liz Tylor, Deborah Kerr, Gabriel Figueroa, Ava Gardner, Sue Lyon, and Emolio "El Indio" Fernández) will be shown at mini-auditoriums set up on the CUCosta campus, as well as at Los Arcos Amphitheater, and the Cuale Cultural Center.

• William Vaidovits, Jorge Sánchez, Ernesto Rodriguez, Ivan Trujillo, David Martin del Campo and Pavel Cortés will hold roundtable discussions on the film and its cultural and historical significance at Biblioteca Los Mangos.

• A Talk / Coffee with Nelly Wulff, Jan Lavender, Laura Quiroz, Luis Reyes Brambila, Marcella Lepe, and Sergio Toledano - Vallartenses who witnessed the filming of the movie and its aftermath will be held at Biblioteca Los Mangos.

• Since John Huston is a legend and Puerto Vallarta is honored to be part of his past, a 'John Huston International Film and Literature Chair' will be created at the CUC.

Regardless of its artistic and entertainment value, one of the most remarkable features of "Night of the Iguana" is its journalism. The movie does an extraordinary job of capturing sense of place. The jungle, beaches, tropical heat and humidity, and the blend of outsiders and locals are all very accurately represented. Shot 50 years ago, the film is an invaluable peek back in time at Puerto Vallarta and its surrounding areas.

Dicha empresa se inició con 56 miembros (actualmente 35) del ejido, empezaron sin capital, pero con grandes posibilidades y potencial.
El Jorullo se encuentra delante de Paso Ancho; cuentan con 13 mil hectáreas en los cerros que tienen como vecino al Río Cuale.

Los ejidatarios se organizaron para crear unas líneas de acero para el deporte de las tirolesas, contaron con apoyo del Consejo Nacional de Fortalecimiento Regional (ONAFOR) y en siete años de trabajo intenso han logrado crear esta importante empresa, aún en crecimiento, que es de las mejores del país en su tipo, con gran cantidad de servicios, desde transporte que se encarga de recoger al turismo que viene de paquete.

En Canopy River, se les ofrecen gran oportunidad de aventuras en las montañas y en el Río Cuale que baja con aguas muy transparentes y sin contaminantes. Es de los ríos de Jalisco más limpios. El sitio es estupendo para deslizarse entre sus aguas o hacer recorridos por sus orillas a bordo de mulas, que son los animales más seguros para pasear en estos caminos de riesgo.

Existen doce líneas para las emociones en tirolesa, paredes de caída libre, rapel, líanas de de tarzan para caer en el agua, recorridos por el río y las montañas a bordo de cuatrimotos y en áreas de descanso, servicios de restaurante y de bar.

Cuentan con área para espectáculos musicales y jóvenes del ejido forman parte del personal, especialmente preparados para atender todos estos servicios. Incluso quienes son los promotores para tratar directamente con las empresas extranjeras que buscan para el turismo este tipo de aventuras en el bosque, en la selva y en el río.

El Ejido de El Jorullo cuenta con personal habilitado y atento a emergencias ambientales, especialmente los incendios forestales en tiempo de secas. Cuidan las 13 mil hectáreas de su entorno, pero también el resto de las montañas, los más jóvenes integran el cuerpo de bomberos, que reciben técnicas para combatir el fuego en cursos que toman a nivel estatal y nacional.

Para los vallartenses debe ser un orgullo que sean los ejidatarios los que operen este turismo de aventura que es atractivo para todos. Los programas de recorrido se difunden en hoteles y en el extranjero a través de los programas oficiales en expos nacionales y en el Tianguis Turístico.

Cómo proteger a los niños del calor extremo

El calor es algo que no se puede evitar en estas fechas de verano y especialmente si pasara sus vacaciones en la playa, por eso es importante informarse de como esto puede afectar la salud de los niños y que medidas tomar para prevenir y auxiliarlos.

Evitar los efectos del calor extremo:

Diferentes medidas que puede tomar para proteger a su hijo de enfermedades relacionadas con el calor: 

• Planifique tener un espacio fresco con aire acondicionado para su hijo. Si su casa no tiene aire acondicionado, busque un edificio cercano que tenga. Las bibliotecas pueden ser un excelente lugar para refugiarse del calor. 
• Asegúrese de que su hijo se mantenga hidratado. Estimúlelo a que beba agua regularmente, incluso antes de que lo pida.
• Planifique más tiempo del usual para descansar; el calor con frecuencia puede hacer que los niños se sientan cansados.
• Cuando su niño tenga calor, dele un baño fresco o rocíelo con agua para refrescarlo.
• No se olvide de los efectos de la exposición al sol.
• Nunca deje a un niño dentro de un auto u otro vehículo de motor cerrado, especialmente cuando las temperaturas son altas. La temperatura dentro del auto puede ser mucho más alta que en el exterior y puede elevarse a temperaturas que pueden provocar la muerte.

Efectos en la salud:

El calor extremo puede enfermar a los niños de muchas maneras, entre ellas:

• Deshidratación
• Agotamiento por calor
• Calambres provocados por calor
• Insolación

Cuándo llamar al médico de su hijo:

Llame inmediatamente al médico si su hijo presenta cualquiera de los siguientes síntomas.
El médico puede decirle qué hacer y si necesita una evaluación inmediata.  

• Desmayos
• Cansancio extremo
• Dolor de cabeza
• Fiebre
• Sed excesiva
• Náusea
• Vómitos
• Respiración más profunda o más rápida de lo normal
• Entumecimiento u hormigueo en la piel
• Dolor muscular
• Espasmos musculares

Efectos psicológicos:

No se olvide de la salud mental de su hijo.
Los niños se pueden volver extremadamente ansiosos o inquietos si se mantienen dentro de la casa. Planifique con anticipación actividades y juegos dentro de la casa; limite la cantidad de tiempo que pasan viendo televisión.

Los niños pueden sentir miedo o estrés por los efectos del calor.
Los niños siguen el ejemplo de sus padres y del entorno, así que recuerde mantenerse calmado y responder a sus preguntas abierta y honestamente. Recuerde no compartir más de lo que sea apropiado para su edad.
