Puerto Vallarta Open for Travel 2022 (Vallarta Lovers)

Much has changed since the spring of 2021. More than 63% of Americans are fully vaccinated, new daily COVID-19 cases from the omicron variant are beginning to taper off and travel bans have largely dissipated.

All of this leads some health experts to believe travel will be in a better place by mid-March or April – good news for travelers across the country itching for a spring break retreat.

As of January 25, the state of Jalisco, which includes the popular tourist destination of Puerto Vallarta, is in yellow status. The state now requires proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test to be admitted into:

• Casinos
• Bars
• Clubs
• Concerts

In addition, if you are visiting Puerto Vallarta, you may want to make reservations for tours and restaurants due to capacity restrictions. Restaurants are operating at 90% capacity. Tours are operating at 85% capacity. Bars, clubs and casinos are operating at 75% capacity.

Public beaches in Puerto Vallarta are open but groups are urged to stay 6 feet apart from each other and to limit their group size to no more than 8 people – preferably from the same family or group of travelers.

Events are limited to 150 people indoors and 300 people outdoors. Conventions and exhibitions that have space of more than 10,000 square meters have a capacity limit of 3,000 people.
