Bucerias | Adventure Tours | Whale Watching | Diving | ATV Touring | Art Walk | Turtle Egg Hunt
They call it sleepy Bucerias, but someone has definitely woken up the neighbours...for a small town, there is a surprising amount to see and do in Bucerias, Mexico!
There are many high adventure tours, one of the most popular being one that lets you zip-line at 30 miles an hour over the lush jungle of Las Juntas y Veranos and the beautiful Orquidias River. Another is an ATV tour that takes you through the ranches and farmlands, and out to see the sweeping vistas of Banderas Bay. For a slower pace, take in the unique Oliver Ridley Turtles tour. The Bucerias / Nuevo Vallarta region is home to thousands of Olive Ridley Turtles. Educational and experiential, you will learn about these rare creatures, go on a turtle egg hunt, and watch turtle hatchlings as they first set their flippers onto the beaches of Bucerias.
Dive off the beach and into Banderas Bay and you will fine a kaleidoscope of marine life and a maze of reefs, tunnels and underwater caves. On the water, there are many tours from whale and sea lion watching to the more unusual Pirates in the Bay dinner with sword fighting, singing and dancing. No need to worry, Banderas Bay's calm waters and resident dolphins keep any sharks from coming around.
Around downtown Bucerias, you will find the world famous Bucerias Art Walk, where all the galleries showcase the creative and cultural riches of the region. If you are so inspired, head over to The Broken Art Mosaic Studio where you will be guided to make your own tile and glass masterpiece. In the evenings, learn the art of making authentic Mexican food.
The centrepiece of any Mexican town is the sun. Lounge in the 85+ degree heat on Bucerias' soft, golden sand beaches which are amongst the most beautiful and cleanest in the area. One of the most popular sunset activities in Bucerias, and one that is prohibited in most other beaches, is horse-back riding along the ocean.
