For those who prefer to combine a beach with
a classic Mexican village, Puerto Vallarta is the answer. The tile-roofed
houses and the Cobbled lanes of the "Old Town" contrast
with the modern architecture of the mansions and hotels along the
shores of Jalisco state's Pacific coast. We recommend golfers plan
to spend several days in this region trying out its excellent courses
along with a variety of other activities in the company of spouses
and friends strolling the village streets, ambling about the plazas,
browsing in the craft shops, sampling some delicious Mexican cooking,
heading down to Mismaloya Beach or taking a bay cruise to Yelapa,
passing by Los Arcos (The Arches) which are natural rock formations
out in the water, getting a tan relaxing on the beach, chartering
a boat for a few hours out at sea to seek a sailfish and, of course,
spending the better part of a day testing the 18 holes at the FLAMINGO
GOLF CLUB, the Marina
Club de Golf - Golf Course or the Vista
Valarta Club de Golf which in addition to golf, has vessels
for fishing and sailing if you plan to spend a holiday in Guadalajara.
About 50 kilometers from "the Pearl of the Bajío",
Lake
Chapala is a world unto itself that is hard to leave. THE CHAPALA
COUNTRY CLUB is a magnificent choice for visitors that find
themselves welcomed with Mariachi music and tequila with splendid
hospitality.
In Colima state, Manzanillo is white like
a full moon in a cloudless sky. Here the hotels are in a class by
themselves and the beaches along the bay are the main attraction,
the bars are filled with fun while in restaurants crowds chat about
the activities of the day. The setting is conducive to planning
a round for golf at the MANTARRAYA or meeting at ISLA
NAVIDAD, a resort, marina and golf course where a fabulous day
can be spent in the company of dedicated golfers.
