Bucerias,
Mexican for
“the place of divers,”
offers one of
Mexico’s finest beaches.
The flat, white-sand
beach stretches for approximately seven miles.
Ambitious beach strollers
can walk to Nuevo Vallarta
to the south, and
La Cruz de Huanacaxtle,
a small town to the north. |
Bucerias is
a Mexican village
often described as “the Puerto Vallarta
of 25 years ago.”
It
has a population of between 4,000 and 6,000 persons. The center of town features the
ubiquitous Mexican zocolo (town square) complete with gazebo, a nearby church and numerous
stores and markets. Modern motor vehicles share the road with horses and burros. In the
early morning fishermen set sail from the central beach area.
Bucerias has a selection of
fine restaurants - ranging from fine dining to ultra-casual taco stands and
loncherias.
