Santa Barbara Info, Nayarit

Bahía de Banderas is both a bay and a municipality in the Mexican state of Nayarit. The bay, site of the tourist destination Puerto Vallarta, is bounded on the north by Punta Mita and on the south by Cape Corrientes. It straddles the states of Jalisco and Nayarit and is the third largest natural bay in Mexico.  

From a small fishing village to a world-class beach destination, Puerto Vallarta has managed to retain the unique atmosphere of a small Mexican town. Located in the center of the Bay of Banderas in the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains, Vallarta offers an incredible variety of natural wonders.

San Rafael is located in the North Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area and is the county seat of Marin County, California, United States.
