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.
