Mazatlan Vacation Rentals, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Mazatlan
is a city of almost 700,000 people and draws one million visitors per year. Sunning, surfing, fishing and sailing are the primary activities, and in wintertime, many come from the United States, Canada and inland Mexico for relaxing Mazatlan vacations spent in the sun. The downtown is that of a dignified port city (Mazatlan fishing is quite popular) but the Zona Dorada area of town is lined with shops, restaurants and hotels, giving it the feel of a tourist town. Thus, Mazatlan vacations can be enjoyed by city birds and nature lovers alike. Two of the city’s most popular beaches, Playa Sabalo and Playa las Gaviotas, run parallel to la Zona Dorada. Both are filled with vendors selling pottery, lace, silver jewelry, and renting windsurfers and other boats. There are several other beautiful beaches in the area, and a serene drive into cattle and coconut country is a great way to see the countryside outside of Mazatlan. Indeed, Mazatlan vacation rentals can be found near town or the beach -- so you can choose your specific location! Deep-sea fishing is also a very popular sport in Mazatlan, where you will find one of Mexico’s largest sportfishing fleets. It is often called the “shrimp capital of the world,” and processes nearly 40 tons each year. Mazatlan fishing may very well be the highlight of your trip. Visitors can find all types of restaurants in Mazatlan, authentic Mexican dishes, as well as Italian and Continental cuisine, and lodging tends to be more affordable than other coastal cities. Mazatlan is also well known for their annual carnaval, which is held in February and dates back to the 17th century. As well, Mazatlan golf is quite popular. Its a great idea to book Mazatlan rental vacation homes by owner, so why not explore the beautiful Mazatlan vacation rentals found here and then pick out your favorite?
