Manzanillo Playa de Oro International Airport! South of Barra de Navidad you'll pass through the working village of Cihuatlan enroute to the turn off to the two mile entrance road to the Manzanillo international airport. This the airport you fly into to access this part of Mexico. The airport is 28 miles from the center of downtown Manzanillo! Tepic (Junction of Highway 15 and 200) to Manzanillo Mex. Hwy 200 traverses through the tropical deciduous forests and mountains of the Nayarit State capital of Tepic, past the palm tree lined zocalos of the tourist mecca of Puerto Vallarta on the Bay of Banderas in Jalisco State, southward hugging the Pacific ocean on its way past farmland, thorn forests and sprawling savannas to the resort city of Manzanillo in the State of Colima. It serves as the gateway to the "Costa Alegre" (Happy Coast) of southwestern, coastal Mexico!
