Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Most of us love to shop and always have something special on the list of things we want to wear, a gift for someone, new decoration and art for our home, special goodies for that fiesta, a unique piece of jewelry, handcrafted pieces for our collection, a place to beautify ourselves and more.

As our visitors and residents return to Puerto Vallarta many things have changed - new locations for a favorite shop and lots of new and exciting places opening each season.

Now you can easily find everything your heart desires by going to your computer and visiting the new Vallarta Shopping Directory. You will find the locations, contact information, hours, and a description of each shop's service or products plus links to their websites or blogs.

The directory includes the best shopping spots such as art galleries, artisan shops, boutiques, jewelry stores, drug and nutrition stores, natural and food products, wines and liquors and more. The directory now includes the downtown and Southside of Puerto Vallarta, but soon there will be a section for the Marina and Hotel Zone.

Many of these businesses are not on the major streets but they offer such unique items that every visitor should explore them. So before you go out shopping in Puerto Vallarta, be sure to check the online directory, so you won't miss some of Vallarta's best stores and specialty shops.
