Conchas Chinas is an affluent neighborhood directly south of Puerto Vallarta in the state of Jalisco, on Mexico's Pacific coast. The term Conchas Chinas means "Curled Shells," referring to the type of shell found only on the beaches of Conchas Chinas. Locals in Puerto Vallarta refer to Conchas Chinas as "The Hills" (as in "the Beverly Hills of Puerto Vallarta").
Puerto Vallarta’s Rainy Season Experience. Puerto Vallarta adopts a distinct rhythm from July through October. Short afternoon downpours revitalize the surrounding jungle, replenish local waterfalls, and cool the summer temperatures, all while Jalisco’s premier beach destination retains its vibrant charm.
