Part of the Gay Puerto Vallarta Guide — bars, events & things to do.

Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco
Beachfront dining on Los Muertos with a boat-shaped bar and LGBTQ+ ownership since 1972.
Daiquiri Dick's has held its spot on Los Muertos Beach in the Zona Romántica since 1972 — one of Puerto Vallarta's longest-running restaurants. The current ownership group includes LGBT businessman Javier Jimenez and LA restaurateurs Wayne Elias and Chris Diamond, continuing a tradition of gay-friendly dining that dates back decades under previous owners Peter and Tari Bowman. The setting is the draw: tables on the sand, a giant boat-shaped bar mixing cocktails like the Oaxaca on the Beach, and a menu built around fresh seafood alongside staples like the signature Asian Chicken Salad. Casual enough for a long lunch, polished enough for a sunset dinner.

The complete LGBTQ+ guide to Puerto Vallarta — the Romantic Zone gayborhood, gay bars, beach clubs, pool parties, gay-friendly resorts, and everything for your trip to Mexico's gay capital.

Puerto Vallarta's gay resorts sit within a few blocks of each other in the Zona Romántica and on the Amapas hillside above it. Here is what each property's own site says about who it is for, which pools are clothing-optional, what a night costs, and which ones sell day passes, from Almar's beach club to the seven-room men-only Piñata PV.

BeefDip returns to Puerto Vallarta January 24–31, 2027 with nine days of pool, beach and club parties across the Zona Romántica. The official schedule is out: here is every party, what the Dog Tag covers, and where to stay.

Which gay cruise fits you? Atlantis, VACAYA, Olivia, Brand g, Big Gay Cruise, bear cruises and more, compared by vibe, ship size, price and who each one is for.

Where to stay in PV — gay-focused boutique resorts in Amapas and the Romantic Zone, beachfront stays at Blue Chairs, and adults-only all-inclusives. Plus the booking strategy for Vallarta Pride.

Memorial Day weekend means three of the year's biggest gay events happening at the same time. Here's how to pick — plus every other LGBTQ+ event worth your May 2026.
