Puerto Vallarta Fishing, Scuba Diving and Discovery Cruise

Description

Mismaloya is the small bay side village where in 1963 Hollywood director John Huston chose to make the movie "Night of the Iguana" which changed the face of Puerto Vallarta forever. The publicity created by Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's love affair, and interest in the Mexican town where it occurred, put Puerto Vallarta on the world's map.

Since then this tropical paradise, where the verdant jungle vegetation of the Sierra Madre mountains meets the crystal clear waters of Banderas Bay, has been passionately linked to Puerto Vallarta's history.

Mismaloya first found its place in time 600 years before Christ was born. The vast kingdom that existed at that time was called Xalisco, and Nayarita ruled as King. Nayarita was envisioned as the god of battle and he fought bravely to keep this cove in his possession because it was known as the most beautiful spot in the entire kingdom of Xalisco. Later the Colhoa tribe from Aztlan, the Toltecas and the Aztecas migrated to these fertile lands and opened up a well traveled trail to the glorious Nahuatl empire situated in the valley of Mexico that today is known as Mexico City.
