Puerto Vallarta, famous as a playground for Hollywood stars, featured weekly on episodes of The Love Boat in the 70s and 80s, and home to a wintering population of Humpback Whales, is the newest destination for a Ventures Birding mid-winter expedition! From shorebirds and gulls on sandy beaches, to estuaries full of waders (and crocodiles!), to land birds ranging in altitude from sea level to pine forest, our week-long trip explores the diversity and culture of this beautiful region of Southwest Mexico.
