Bucerias & La Cruz

Sailing. Marina. Fishing. Sunday Markets. Mexican Charm.

Bucerías is one of the most visited destinations of the Riviera Nayarit among national and international tourists alike. There are restaurants along the water from thatched-roof huts to fine-dining and local markets displaying items such as silver jewelry, handicrafts, clothing, and traditional sweets. In the Main Plaza, you can observe the activity of the locals as you enter the church or walk a few meters to where all the children play. This part of the bay is a great place to sail, kayak, jetski, or even windsurf.

Many visitors, especially foreigners from Canada and the United States, decide to establish their second home here in this family-friendly town. La Cruz de Huanacaxtle has been a fishing village for generations. The new Riviera Nayarit Marina has created a beachfront destination that harmoniously combines the traditional life of a Mexican pueblo with the sophistication of a modern development such as the Marina. You will find not only the obvious delights of the beach, but also a variety of restaurants where you can dine on dishes of freshly caught fish, creations that have been a culinary tradition of this town for more than 50 years. Enjoy activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving, and of course fishing, one of the main activities of La Cruz thanks to the abundance of species such as tuna, marlin and mahi-mahi. During the high-season, be sure to visit the Sunday Market.
