The Boy on the Seahorse (Spanish: "El niño sobre el caballito de mar"), commonly known as El caballito, is a sculpture by Rafael Zamarripa. Two versions are installed in Puerto Vallarta, in the Mexican state of Jalisco; one along the MalecóninCentro and another at Playa de los MuertosinZona Romántica.
One of the existing sculptures along the Malecón, installed in 1976, replaced a smaller version which was erected at Playa de los Muertos in the late 1960s but later swept away by a storm. The work has been described as an icon of the city.[1][2]
