Mazatlan Mexico

 We arrive to Mazatlan in the morning with no particular plans, but to wander around the city, watch the high divers than go over to Stone Island, which is literally a stone throw from the ship.

Mazatlan Mexico
  • Cathedral Basilica & Plaza Revolución

    Moorish and Gothic architecture at the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception, then we head across the way to the popular Plaza Revolución with its charming gazebo and street vendors. I pick up skin care, incense and something cold to drink.

The 4 of us walking through town to get to the high divers and stopped by vendors selling jewelry. It's hard to say no. 

We go back to the ship, change, grab our swim suits and towels and head over to Stone Island. Plenty of cart will take you there for about 5 dollars. Then you  take a little boat across the water to get there. You can either walk along the sand to find a place, or wait for a van to take you to one of the restaurants, which is what we did. You can lay out on the sand and order your food for the beach. 
Stone Island is less crowded and not as developed as the mainland, a haven of sunshine and ocean, with glistening sand, crashing waves, and rustling palm trees and plentiful coconuts.
