About Mazatlan, Mexico

Mazatlan is one of Mexico’s most generous tourist destinations. No matter if you’re here with your family, your other half or friends, this privileged vacation paradise has a lot to offer.

It isn’t hard to understand why Mazatlan is one of the most important tourist destinations of the country. It has one of the world’s largest boardwalks, since it is 21 km long and throughout it there’s an endless list of restaurants, bars, hotels, nightclubs and monuments; Olas Altas beach, favorite of surfers, is at the beginning of the Mazatlan boardwalk. Other famous beaches of the Pearl of the Pacific are Cerritos Beach, Brujas Beach, Norte Beach and Venados Beach, although if what you love is diving and snorkeling you just can’t miss Isla de Piedra.

Weather in Mazatlan is perfect to make the most out of a few days of sun and beach; semi-humid, it reaches an annual average temperature of 78.8 °F so when it’s time to eat you’ll probably want a ceviche, cocktail, aguachile or something else from the typical gastronomy of Mazatlan, which is mainly based on fresh seafood.

In your visit to Mazatlan you can’t miss its Historic Centre. Among cobblestoned streets and neoclassic and baroque style buildings you’ll be able to admire a little of the spectacular architecture that sometimes is missed when we talk about Mazatlan; the Angela Peralta Theater, the Art Museum, the Cathedral Basilica of the Inmaculada Concepcion, and of course, the Plaza Machado are among the main tourist attractions of the Historic Centre of Mazatlan, Mexico.

Once you’re here you can explore the tourist area and boardwalk of Mazatlan on foot or on board of one of the traditional pulmonias that since 1965 move visitors day and night and offer a fun panoramic ride around the top spots of Mazatlan.
