Mazatlán vacations 

Located on Mexico’s western coast, Mazatlán lives up to its moniker, the "Pearl of the Pacific” for its beautiful islands, seaside promenade and golden beaches.  

Visit Playa las Gaviotas’ golden sands or discover the surrounding Deer Island and Bird Island. Journey over mountain trails on an ATV or kayak down Presidio River where you can spot local wildlife along the riverbanks. Trophy fishing was once a draw for celebrities like John Wayne and Ernest Hemingway, and today, Mazatlán is still considered an angler's Mecca.   

The seven-km-long Malecón boardwalk stretches along Mazatlán’s oceanfront, passing through the iconic Golden Zone with several hotels, shops, bars and restaurants scattered along beaches, as well as the historic Old Town, home to sites like the Mazatlán Cathedral and Plazuela Machado’s central square.   

From Old Town to the new Golden Zone, discover this picturesque destination on a Mazatlán all-inclusive vacation.
