A beautiful, friendly beachtown of 11,000, San Blas is about 125 miles
of Puerto Vallarta. The hotels and restaurants are reasonable and
there is only moderate tourism. The town would be superb except for
one factor; the swarms of biting gnats that come out at dawn and dusk
force you to either stay indoors or slather yourself in 100 % DEET.
The one official whorewhouse ( or to use the polite term, centro
nocturno ) in town is the Herradoro ( Av. Battalon near the beach
). There is a dance floor with an older, plumb, dancer. Several nights
a week there is a live band ( which does a surprisingly good rendition
of "Hotel California" ).
The important little fishing port town of San Blas, Nayarit Mexico has made definite progress over the last few years.
Once a filthy little town, filled with
stagnate water, garbage and starving dogs
in the streets, the citizens have taken an
immense pride in civic improvements to
make San Blas a more pleasant place to
visit and to live.
