Fodor's Expert Review El Faro
Marina Vallarta
Bars
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Here you can admire the bay and marina from atop a 110-foot lighthouse. It's mainly an expat retiree crowd (think yachters) and opens daily after 6 pm. During high season, especially on weekends, there's mellow music (including Mexican folk, or trova) after 10 pm.
