I am Pretty sure that what we see today is the island recovering from being a target for bombing. It’s not natural by any means. But it’s great they are repairing the coral. Let’s cheer them for taking care of it.
Do humans always have to INVADE everything and call it a tourist attraction? Some precious areas just need to be left alone. PV has its own beach for tourist play.
Update: The Governor of Nayarit has said the biggest problem is one tour company in Puerto Vallarta that has been granted a license to carry 400 people a day to the islands while all others are restricted to boats of 8 people. He didn’t name the company, but you don’t need to be a rocket scientist.
Of course it is Vallarta Adventures. They are vile people. They brag about their dedication to the environment while keeping dolphins caged up to be ridden like horses all for $$$$$ and they are putting a dolphin tank in the new shopping center in Puerto Vallarta. People should not use that company if they really care about preserving the environment or are against animal cruelty. Every dollar spent with Vallarta Adventures is one more abused animal or negative environmental impact in Puerto Vallarta. They have paid off government officials for years so that they can skirt environmental policies. Nothing will change at these islands unless that company has their privileges revoked, and that will never happen because business does control the government in every country and tourism is the only thing local government cares about. Environmental talk is just lip service.
It’s mainly the coral in the area. Our understanding is they need to replant coral, this is done by stitching live coral to the dying coral and it stimulates regrowth, as explained by a biologist. However the scientist said this will take all year, not just two months. http://www.vallartadaily.com/news/puerto-vallarta/dead-coral-marietas-islands/
Been there.

I am agree
Did you know that these beautiful holes were made by the Mexican Navy doing target practice ?
Kinda wished it would just stay closed… Better for the environment
I’m curious about how you repair and restore a beach.

Right. And it does nothing if they don’t change the things that got it this way in the first place.
