There are three distinctive landmarks for Marina Vallarta. The first thing you will see is a large whale sculpture at the main entrance to the Marina. It was built by Octavio González in the early 90s and financed by businessmen from the Navy. The prominent landmark is a lighthouse, built next to the promenade and at the end of Calle Timón.
The lighthouse has a bar at the top and is a wonderful place to have an evening cocktail and enjoy an excellent view. The promenade is very popular with walkers, who enjoy the many boats in the marina and the many restaurants available for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
