Puerto Vallarta has not experienced a Santa Semana and Easter vacation with such a low occupancy level in recent history. The Easter holiday period is the last tourist weekend before the low tourist season begins in Puerto Vallarta, and is usually the most important week of the year for businesses in the city.

To achieve compliance with health protocols and not promote a rebound in Covid-19 cases, an operation was mounted in the tourist areas of Puerto Vallarta with the help of students, the National Guard, Civil Protection, the Military Naval sector, and other institutions.
