Velas Vallarta, an all-inclusive family resort with lush gardens in Puerto Vallarta, is the perfect location for your next family travels. Situated on the emerald waters of Banderas Bay, Velas Vallarta features 345 suites, a convention center, swimming pools, tennis and pickleball courts, AMET Spa with seaside cabins, a fitness center and multiple restaurants. Kids will have the time of their lives at the Kids’ Club with supervised activities like mini mariachi and sand sculptures.

 

Families looking for a new activity to do together should check out Velas Vallarta’s new fishing experience to immerse themselves in one of the most popular activities in the destination.

 

With help and guidance from an expert fisherman, guests learn the fundamentals of fishing and pick up tips and insider secrets while fishing for barracuda, sierra (Spanish mackerel) and horse mackerel. The activity takes place on the resort’s jetty, an ideal spot for enthusiasts and beginners alike. The journey includes a beachside dinner where guests can cook their catch of the day alongside the resort’s chef. Together, prepare the catch in traditional Vallarta style, accompanied by a curated selection of white wines, cheese and fruit. Younger guests can enjoy non-alcoholic drinks and special treats.
