Fresh vegetables such as cucumber are usually added.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As its name implies, aguachile basically translates to \u201cchili water,\u201d and it is a much spicier version of ceviche.<\/p>\n<p>It seems the most common type of aguachile is with shrimp, cucumber, onion, and lime juice. The chilies are usually blended with water to create the marinade. One major difference with ceviche versus aguachile is said to be the time it marinates. With ceviche, the seafood marinates in the lime juice for at least 15-20 minutes. Aguachiles are tossed in the lime and pretty much served right away.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3555\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3555\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3555 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/37740309_1798851793539291_7435085437351231488_n.jpg 1776w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3555\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ceviche y Aguachile Festival, Puerto Vallarta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here is a recipe for shrimp Aquchile<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1\u00a0POUND<strong>EXTRA LARGE SHRIMP<\/strong>\u00a0PEELED AND DEVEINED<\/li>\n<li>1\u00a0CUP<strong>FRESH LIME JUICE <\/strong>ABOUT 8 LIMES<\/li>\n<li>4-6\u00a0<strong>SERRANO PEPPERS <\/strong>STEMS REMOVED I see they leave the seeds and veins intact to keep it spicy.<\/li>\n<li>2\u00a0TABLESPOONS\u00a0<b>GRAPE SEED\u00a0OR OLIVE OIL<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Directions<\/p>\n<p>Peel and clean the shrimp.

In fact, when I asked my Facebook Friends what was the best place to get married and to introduce me to their favorite wedding planner in Puerto Vallarta, the place that came up most often wasn\u2019t even in Puerto Vallarta. It\u2019s in Nuevo Vallarta, across state lines, in Bucerias. Now We haven\u2019t visited Bucerias so first a little history.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3603\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3603\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3603\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_-300x251.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_-358x300.jpg 358w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Do-You-Know-a-Great-Wedding-Planner-in-PV_.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3603\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Do You Know a Great Wedding Planner in PV?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Where is Bucerias and a Little History<\/h3>\n<p>Bucer\u00edas, Nayarit, Mexico<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3605\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3605\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3605\" src=\"http:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias-300x240.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias-768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias-1024x821.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias-374x300.jpg 374w, https:\/\/puertovallartatravelshow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Map-to-Bucerias.jpg 1037w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3605\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Map to Bucerias<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<\/p>\n<p><em>Bucer\u00edas meaning &#8220;place of divers&#8221;, is a small beach resort town in Nayarit on a stretch of that country&#8217;s Pacific coast known as the Riviera Nayarit, on the Bay of Banderas, between La Cruz de Huanacaxtle and Nuevo Vallarta.

The boom of all-inclusive hotels to the south in Nuevo Vallarta&#8211;a development extending from the north end of Puerto Vallarta&#8211;has driven building in Bucer\u00edas as well, although in a more muted way.

You will be crossing state lines, so an UBER ride would only work one way. Uber can\u2019t pick up in Nayarit. You can take a cab or you can do what I do and take a bus. From downtown take a blue bus that says Walmart on the windshield. Catch an ATM bus in front of Walmart, and make sure you ask the driver if he is going to Bucerias. The ride, depending on the traffic, the time of day and so on, both are related of course, but about 45 minutes from downtown Vallarta to Bucerias. You can board an ATM bus that says Punta Mita which will stop in Bucerias on its way to Punta Mita, the cost is approximately 15 pesos. Or you can choose to take a green-and-white Compostela bus to Bucerias for $14 pesos.<\/p>\n<p>I asked the driver if he knew where Karen\u2019s Place was, and he did a good job of dropping me off on Highway 200,<\/p>\n<p>I walked about 3 blocks to the beach and came across what looked like a hotel or condo complex, with a swimming pool, and in front, on the beautiful wide white sand beach, stood the restaurant, Karen\u2019s Place. She has the most wonderful accent, I can\u2019t wait to introduce her to you, so let\u2019s go right now, to a table with a view of the Bahia de Banderas, in a lovely seaside restaurant, and meet my new friend, and now yours, Karen Blair, Karen of Karen\u2019s Place.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3568\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3568\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption

It costs no more than if you were to use someone else so do it. Really. And when you do take one of these tours, email me about your experiences.
