Nuevo Vallarta Emergency & Important Telephone Numbers

No one wants to think about an emergency situation, but it's better to face that possibility than to be caught unprepared. Whether you are a resident of Bucerias or a visitor, please be prepared ahead of time.

Huricanes in our area are very rare but we do loose power in the summer months frequently so always be prepared. Sometimes it can take up to one week to get electricty (CFE) back. This means buying extra water, canned foods, medicines, gasoline, etc.  

Monitor storm activity at the National hurricane center, www.nhc.noaa.gov or Weather Underground, www.wunderground.com/hurricane
