We spend our time on the coast because we live on the boat. We avoid the major tourist areas but love La Paz and La Cruz (north of Puerto Vallarta). We plan to explore more this winter.

Last spring, we drove from Puerto Vallarta to Belize and back and saw some amazing parts of the country. It is so varied.

There are lots and lots of ex-pats in the Lake Chapala region outside of Guadalajara. It has spectacular weather.

It might be worth your while to take a road trip. I would start with the Baja, then maybe explore the mainland a bit.

It's a wonderful place full of wonderful people and food and music and weather.
