The newest sensation on the modeling circuit, Samantha Hoopes, was the focus of a photo shoot for Ocean Magazine that took place in several different locations around the Riviera Nayarit. The Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau and the St Regis Punta Mita Resort coordinated the activity.

The statuesque 23-year old American model posed and enjoyed the landscapes of the Riviera Nayarit from October 25th through the 29th. Ocean Magazine’s editorial team will remain in the destination until November 7th to continue their exploration around the Riviera Nayarit to gather material for their articles.

The return on investment expected from these public relations actions with the model and Ocean Magazine—which has a circulation of 75 thousand books a month—is very high, as they will publish five full pages on the Riviera Nayarit in their “Most Stylish Destinations” section, plus another three in their “Holiday Haute List” destination spotlight.

There will also be plenty of exposure via the magazine’s social media accounts including Twitter, where they have over 4 million followers. SSamantha has over 16 thousand followers of her own on Twitter, where she posted on her arrival in Mexico saying “So happy to be in Mexico! Now where’s the tequila.”

The locations picked by the prestigious magazine included San Pancho, Sayulita, El Anclote, the Islas Marietas and the St Regis.

Samantha Hoopes was already chosen to grace the January 2015 Sports Illustrated cover and she’s considered one of the world’s top beauties. No doubt her visit to the Riviera Nayarit will continue to increase celebrities’ interest in Mexico’s Pacific Treasure.
