A small beach club is tucked away near downtown Bucerias in the Riviera Nayarit just minutes from Puerto Vallarta’s International Airport. Situated on Banderas Bay’s longest sand beach, the club offers a wonderful venue for small and intimate destination weddings on the beach with a rustic twist and at a great price!
The small kitchen can accommodate groups of up to 50 guests, and it serves a wide variety of fresh seafood and other Mexican specialties in a buffet style. Meals are normally served inside the palapa, but seating can either be inside or outside on the beach.
With sweeping views down the beach for miles in both directions, and across the Bay to the mountains on the other side, there could hardly be a more picturesque setting for a destination wedding, and while it’s a public beach, it is hardly ever crowded, even in the winter high season.
Bucerias is known as a sleepy little beach town, with the main streets running parallel to the oceanfront. Many Canadians winter there, so there are a lot of rental accommodations available via AirBNB as well as several small hotels and resorts. In addition, there are several beautiful private villas in town should you and your guests want to stay nearby.
The town is approximately 20 miles from downtown Puerto Vallarta, and seemingly a world away, although it normally takes less than an hour to drive from the Zona Romantica.
