The South Shore is where the Sierra Madre Mountains meet the shores of the Banderas Bay. It is an area full of coves, small bays, rivers, and secluded, remote beaches accessible only by boat. Here the jungle creeps to the beach, making it a perfect tropical setting. This must be the reason movie director, John Huston, chose Mismaloya to film the famous "Night of the Iguana," the set of which is now a landmark restaurant and favorite place for weddings.
