Description:
Bucerias (meaning place of divers), just 11 miles north of Puerto Vallarta's airport, is an emerging beach community for travelers looking for a slower pace or just a laid-back beach experience. Whether you choose to visit for a day or stay for the whole winter, Bucerias offers the rare opportunity to visit an authentic fishing village, eat mouth-watering fresh shrimp at one of the many restaurants lining the beach or do some serious shopping at its lively open-air market that runs parallel to both the beach and the town plaza. Accommodations range from beach bungalows, trailer-park spaces, modern condos and luxury villas – all for rent at great prices. Because of its proximity to Puerto Vallarta, visitors can enjoy the best of both worlds for the low cost of a bus ticket. Bucerias has countless unique restaurants -- several that are good enough to compare to the best ones in Puerto Vallarta. But don't miss the street food. Taco stands abound in this tiny village and they all offer fabulous fare for a few pesos. The five mile stretch of sandy white beach is the perfect place to relax with a margarita and enjoy Bucerias' year-round ocean breeze.
