Puerto Vallarta, on the other hand, has a more tropical
climate than Mazatlan, and more of a rainy season. The town’s
weather is often compared to that of Hawaii, because they
share the same latitude. Temperatures generally stay between
a balmy 77 degrees Fahrenheit and a slightly balmier 90 degrees
(25-32 degrees Celsius), all year round. The rainy season
begins in May/ June, and lasts until about mid-October. During
this time, Puerto Vallarta receives sometimes torrential
downpours that help it regain the green of its lush, tropical
vegetation. Because of the protection afforded it by the
second-largest bay in all of the Americas, Banderas Bay,
Puerto Vallarta is rarely affected by hurricanes or tropical
storms. For current Puerto Vallarta weather, check out this
