What travellers are saying
- Rejoicing LadyGreenville, SC2 contributionsBeautiful family friendly place to watch Pacific sunsets. Sit on the sea wall and interact with locals and other tourists. The lights come on right after sunset. During the day you can rent a bike and ride on the nice 15 mile bike path.Written 28 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

- DayTrip2242895 contributionsWonderful low key area with all the sun, sand, and beach you want. Nothing super lux or fancy but definitely worth the day trip. Easy to get to by bus and then about a 10 minute boat ride to the island. Go to Lety’s restaurant best family owned and clean spot to eat delicious food and spend all day at the beach.Written 1 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- dalessiopietroMurray, UT455 contributionsEvery step is a new discovery. Every corner leads to what feels like a new, yet very historic neighbourhood. The dips, hills, sharp drops, old streets and businesses, as well as schools, churches, steps and pathways are welcoming, and, at times, can be challenging.Written 11 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

- Sharp716 contributionsThe bus terminal in Mazatlan is small but clean. I took the ETN bus line from Mazatlan to Durango. The bus was first quality with wide seats and clean bathrooms. The new highway is amazing! I learned that in the past it took 12 hours to get from Mazatlan to Druango but with this new road it only takes 4.5 to 5 hours. A good amount of tunnels were needed to go across instead of around the mountains but the Baluarte Bridge just takes your breath away, standing 400 meters above the Baluarte river, and surrounded by all of the Sierra Madre muntains.Written 7 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Mac LNew York City, NY49 contributionsThere are many beaches in Mazatlan that are loud with vendors hawking items at you so that it is challenging to relax. In Cerritos, there is a totally different vibe. You can read a book, write in a journal, chat with a friend, and the atmosphere is very chill and uncrowded. Love this place!Written 30 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Virginia SLa Mirada16 contributionsSmall quaint and cute village to visit. The people here are very nice and friendly. They have lovely eateries here and good snaks sold by the people there.
