A: Take a water taxi to Stone Island. It's about a half a mile walk to the water taxi stand. There are also golf cart taxis that will take you to the water taxi stand. The last time that we were there, the water taxi cost $2 pp round-trip. Once at Stone... Island, there is a beach with rustic bar-and-grills, horseback riding, and some water toys. It's not the best beach in the world, but it makes for a no hassle, inexpensive and enjoyable day.See More

A: We got an inexpensive ride on an atv car with a roof on it and he drove us all along the beach (waterfront walkway called the malecon) . It was perfect for us.

A: Unfortunately, not without a taxi ride. It’s more of an industrial shipping port than a picturesque cruise port.

A: The port near the ship is quite industrial. We did an inexpensive excursion thru Mazatlan Van tours. The lunch and margaritas on the beach were fantastic. Mariachi group and a relaxed setting. This was 2 years ago and we are doing the same excursion... in January '23. Probably not the best choice for young kids, but it was PG rated.See More

A: Agreed, there is a lot to do in Mazatlan. First, you need to get away from the port. It is a working port not a tourist attraction. Just across the harbor is Stone Island. Absolutely beautiful beach with many amenities, take an excursion or take a sh... uttle boat across to it. Plaza Machado is less than a mile, you can walk the blue line, many guides and volunteers to show you the way. From there you can go less than a half mile to the Best Western Freeman hotel with a roof top pool with restaurant and bar. Best views. Mazatlan has one of the longest Malecons. Just a few years ago they completely renewed the whole thing. Mazatlan also has Pulmonias, these are dune buggy type taxis. It is great to go site seeing in one of these. The Golden Zone is the tourist area. Great food and shopping. Highly recommend Pancho's on the beach. One of the best restaurants in town. Panama bakery is around the corner from them. Mazatlan is great, just have to get away from the port. EnjoySee More
