Stroll in and out of local art galleries
Every Thursday from April through November, Bucerías’ art galleries open their doors for the locally-beloved Art Walk. Wander in and out of galleries in the Art District and Golden Zone of town, sipping wine, nibbling on cheese, and admiring both art from the area’s most celebrated gallerists and artists. The whole city seemingly comes out to mingle and support the local cultural scene — if any one event embodies the convivial and creative spirit of Bucerías, it’s this.
Browse Bucerías Flea Market
For a slice of local life and some great souvenir shopping, carve out a few hours to peruse the treasure trove of goods at Bucerías Flea Market. Vendors call out to each other, artisans sell their wares, and tourists eagerly snap up handwoven tapestries, ornate Talavera pottery, Huichol art, handworked silver jewelry, and all manner of fun trinkets.
Catch a wave
Bucerías and its surrounding beaches are known for their gentle surf conditions, making it the perfect destination for beginners and surf veterans alike to catch a wave. Head to nearby Sayulita for some of the best surfing you’ll get anywhere in the world, or take things slower on Bucerías’ own beach, which is popular for boogie boarding and kitesurfing.
