Puerto Vallarta News - The Puerto Vallarta beach cleanup at Camarones Beach drew a diverse crowd of volunteers this Saturday, underlining a strong civic drive to protect the coast. At 7:30 a.m., some 450 participants—citizens, environmental groups, Navy personnel, and local business staff—met by the iconic Puerto Vallarta letters along the boardwalk. From that landmark, they moved to the shore and launched a coordinated effort to rid the sand of waste.
