Puerto Vallarta seems to provide a spectacular sunset every night. Nearly every evening on my travels I’d find myself watching the magic from a beach, my hotel balcony, or sipping a cocktail somewhere. I’d also often be ready to capture and share the moment on the Sunset Sunday series. I’ve shared many. Le Kliff also […]

Photo Essay: The Town of Yelapa, Mexico
by Craig Zabransky on March 20, 2012 in Destination, Mexico Travel, Photo
It was a three hour excursion and probably just enough time to explore the town. So I grabbed my camera and my hat, headed to the beach and boarded the boat. From the sands of the Las Majahuitas Resort, a place with a wonderful sunset, we pushed off to sea. Next stop Yelapa. The ride […]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset at Dreams Villamagna, Nuevo Vallarta
by Craig Zabransky on March 18, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Stay Luxurious, Sunset Sunday
I told the taxi driver, “Nuevo Vallarta” and we headed across Mexican state lines from Jalisco to Nayarit. My destination, the Dreams Villagmana, was just a few minutes from the Puerto Vallarta airport. Located in the newly marketed “Riviera Nayarit,” the Dreams is part of a growing area of all-inclusive luxury resorts in this part […]
Whale Watching and Hearing the Humpback Song
by Craig Zabransky on March 14, 2012 in Destination, Films, Mexico Travel
I circled the day on my (mental) calendar well before I arrived in Puerto Vallarta. Whale Watching was one of the main reasons I made sure I visited the coastal town in February, the peak of the season (Dec 15-March 23rd). I wanted to see, wanted to watch, and wanted to experience an encounter with, […]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset at Las Majahuitas Resort
by Craig Zabransky on March 11, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
Simple directions state, “Take the coastal road south from downtown Puerto Vallarta until it ends and then board a water taxi.” To come Las Majahuitas Resort you can’t arrive by car, all guests arrive by boat. The jungle and Sierra Madre Mountains make it only accessible by passage along the Pacific waters. The journey adds […]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset at the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita
by Craig Zabransky on March 4, 2012 in Mexico Travel, Stay Luxurious, Sunset Sunday
My flight landed just after 1pm in Puerto Vallarta and I decided to rent a jeep from Avis to drive the coastal road north to Riviera Nayarit. Just before 3pm I arrived at my first destination – The Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita. On the nine-night adventure I started with my first on the right […]

by Craig Zabransky on January 1, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
The sun officially set on the second year on the Sunset Sunday and now the series embarks on its third year in 2012. Again the year promises new places, new moments, and new memories aimed to inspire people, you, to pause and appreciate the sunset. And as it continues to grow, I trust more and […]
Sunset Sunday – Sunset with San Pascual Bailón, the Chef’s Saint, Puerto Vallarta
by Craig Zabransky on November 27, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday
The International Gourmet Food Festival just concluded in Puerto Vallarta. Last year I attended the multi (chef) star studded event and tasted specialities not just from the chefs who call Puerto Vallarta home, but from others who visit and take over kitchens and menus at some of the region’s best restaurants. It’s widely discussed and […]
