News Publications in Puerto Vallarta

Several free local newspapers are published in English and circulated in the Puerto Vallarta area.

Vallarta Today, published by Vallarta Opina, the oldest Spanish-language daily in town, has many advertisements aimed at tourists but not much news (http://www.vallartatoday.com). P.V. Tribune, from La Tribuna, provides much more editorial content as well as pages in Dutch, German and French.

Vallarta Lifestyles, a glossy quarterly magazine with articles in English and Spanish for both locals and visitors, has an extensive real-estate section as well as guides to hotels, restaurants and shopping.

Vallarta Real Estate Guide publishes the monthly news on local real estate, and Ambito Puerto Vallarta (Puerto Vallarta Ambience) is a free bilingual weekly with local-interest stories.

The English-language weekly tabloid size newspaper, Guadalajara Colony Reporter, covers matters of interest to English speakers in the state of Jalisco, including a few pages of Vallarta-specific coverage.

There are numerous other publications geared to the tourist trade.
