Gina Ibarra is a well-known singer and business woman who lives in the small beachfront town of Bucerías, along the coast of Banderas Bay in Nayarit, Mexico. It is a beautiful tropical paradise that is about a 40 minute drive north of the popular resort area of Puerto Vallarta, or PV as the locals call it. Culture is rich here. There are Humpback whales swimming in the bay, the guacamole is served fresh on the beach, and the margaritas are as authentic as they come, much like her.
Anyone that knows her will tell you that she is an old soul trapped inside of a beautiful young woman's body. And although she is a stunning example of genetic perfection that shines brightly here in our swimwear pictorial, if you ask her she will tell you that her real passion in life is making music, running her coffee shop along the Malecon in Old Town PV, and being in and around the ocean. She is an avid surfer and paddle boarder, and as you will see throughout the next several pages of this feature, she knows how to wear a bikini quite well
"She was born to be free, let her run wild in her own way and you will never lose her" – Nikki Rowe
