Bucerias


For all of you that have been asking me about Bucerias here is some info I found on it along with a photo. Below;

Bucerias, Mexico is only 10 miles from the Puerto Vallarta airport. Quiet, relaxed and a less expensive alternative to larger cities it is a charming spot for your dream vacation.
Small and lovely, it is not without all the conveniences you require for fun and happy vacations. The freshest seafood, restaurants, accommodations, golf, services, laundry service, doctors and most importantly beaches on the beautiful Pacific Ocean.
Located on the north shore of the Bay of Banderas, this stretch of beach is the longest on the Bay and one of the most beautiful on the Pacific coast. Whether boogie boarding, strolling in the moonlight, fishing, swimming, sunbathing, dining, doing tours, water sports, cruises, boating and sailing or watching for whales, it doesn't get better than this.
Maybe that is why the name Bucerias ( pronounced Boo-sir-e-us ) means "place of the divers". See map of town from the air.
Bahía de BanderasThe Bay of Flags plunges to around 1800m (5900ft), has 160km (100mi) of sensational shoreline and comfortably makes it into the list of the 10 biggest bays in the world (it's number seven). Ostensibly the submerged crater of a long-extinguished volcano, Bahía de Banderas is an environmental wonderland populated by giant manta rays, dolphins and (during their birthing season from November through March) humpback whales. It's also inhabited by humans, occupying themselves by diving, fishing, water skiing and generally dipping their collective big toe in the bay's waters.The highlights for divers and snorkeling are Los Arcos, a grand tangle of environmentally protected rocks just south of Playa Gemelas, and the Islas Marietas, a maze of reefs, tunnels and underwater caves at the mouth of the bay that's regularly attended by marine wildlife. Fortunately for those who get Steven Spielberg flashbacks and still aren't sure if it's safe to go back in the water, this doesn't include sharks, which are kept out of the bay by resident dolphins intent on protecting their young.
If you have not been here yet you really should check it out. And hey you have a friend here too to show you around!!
