World?
Mexico has over 1000 square kilometers of Coastline on the pacific coast of America , going all the way from Guatemala up to the northwestern Border near California. The majority of the Coast was for the most part small fishing villages until about 1925, because a newly-built road had brought many tourists.
Many Fancy hotels popped up in Puerto Vallarta and Acapulco, and both became world famous in the 60’s when Richard Burton and Liz Taylor made a picture show called Night of the Iguana and purchased a mansion by the water .
The Government of Mexico pushed (quite heavily), the publicity of building hotels, motels and luxury resorts around the mid-70’s. They dubbed the stretch of land between Puerto and Manzanillo ‘Costa de Oro’ which means ‘Gold Coast’ . The full stretch, which is known as the Mexican Riviera (To the Cruise Industry in the USA) is popular for it’s beautiful scenery of jungle flora, gold beaches and stunning cliff faces
Mexican Riviera Cruises are one of the top cruises in Mexico, people ship in from all over the place to see the amazing scenery in Mexico. The American Cruise industry is forever in debt to the Mexican Riviera. The Tourist Friendly and wildly scenic small towns along the Riviera were the main backdrop for the romantic show that everyone used to love “THE LOVE BOAT”. It made towns like Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas famous in the US and around the world .
These days , The Mexican Riviera is so widely known; it comes up against the big boys of cruise like the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and the Pacific. It’s very accessible to the American Public and relatively affordable. The Mexican Riviera has built a flawless reputation amongst holiday buffsand cruise ship addicts so much that it’s become the 4th most popular cruise destination in the whole world.
