10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Bucerias That You Shouldn't Miss

April 13, 2022 Leonarda Pillsbury

Meaning “place of divers,” Bucerias on Mexico’s Pacific Coast is a charming antidote to the hustle and bustle of nearby Puerto Vallarta. You’ll meet the friendly locals and enjoy beautiful beaches, fantastic dining, outdoor activities and art galleries. Locals congregate in the small plaza in the center of town or head for the beach for some sun and unfettered mountain and bay views. Beyond the beaches of Bucerias, you’ll find superb dining, flea markets laden with special treasures, art galleries, and pubs. Once you’ve tired of the sun, meander through the flea market off the main plaza and tour the residential side of Bucerias, complete with boutique shopping and quality restaurants like La Quinta di Francesco and Adriatico. Some of the best art galleries in town include Splurge Art Gallery, showcasing emerging local artists and designer pewter. On Thursday evenings, participate in the local art walk, and on Sundays, visit the authentic Mexican market. From Bucerias, explore other Riviera Nayarit locations such as Savulita, Punta Mita and San Francisco – they’re all accessible by cheap, frequent bus service.

All classes include your dinner and a recipe booklet of the day's dishes. Check the website for prices and a description of each day's class (topics vary daily). Take home something more from Mexico than just a tan--give your friends or family back home a souvenir (dinner) that will not gather dust on the shelf!

Want an amazing experience in Bucerias? Go take a cooking class at My Mexican Kitchen. We did the seafood class with 6 other friends and what a night. We learned so much about Mexican food and some fabulous recipes in a booklet to take home. My favourite was the crab empanadas we were taught to make. Edgar was very patient with us- teaching us how to use the tortilla press and Travis was so great- putting up with our jokes and comments. This was a fabulous evening and everyone of us(and some were total non cooks) thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Thank you Edgar and Travis for an exceptional class and helping us discover the true flavours of Mexico

I like this little store for it's one of a kind gifts. They have lovely homemade gifts for a fairly inexpensive price. You can also take glass making classes if you are going to be in Bucerias for any length of time.

Human Connections

Human Connections offers a completely unique cultural experience. We bring our guests into the vibrant neighborhoods within Bucerias that travelers rarely get to see. There, we visit three different homes and engage with local artisans, tradespeople and food vendors. We spend about an hour with each person, learning the story behind their craft and seeing the "real Bucerias" through their eyes. While you will enjoy an outstanding homemade meal and history about the area, your favorite thing about the tour will surely be the people you meet. They are simply inspiring. This is a tour about progress (not a tour about poverty) that aims to foster cultural exchange and promote local businesses, all the while providing our guests with an once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Sophie (I believe I have her name correct) along with her husband make these jewellery pieces. The work is excellent and Sophie is a sweet woman. I bought a ring from her this year and love it. Very much worth the visit.
