PUERTO VALLARTA HURRICANE SEASON

Puerto Vallarta is virtually immune from hurricanes.  The Bay of Banderas acts as a natural barrier, dragging the storms out to sea, or further up the coast.  Only once in the past 35 years has Puerto Vallarta experienced damage from a hurricane. 

On October 25, 2002, Category 5 Hurricane Kenna brushed by Puerto Vallarta, and the storm surge caused $101 Million in damage to the city's shores while 100 people were injured.  In 2006, Hurricane John gave the area a scare, but brushed by without incident.
