Playa La Manzanilla!
Next stop is home away from home for me, the quaint fishing village of La Manzanilla, Mexico on the bottom of the horseshoe-shaped Bay of Tenacatita! Just 2 miles off the main highway, this working fishing ejido of 1500 locals also has a high tide, Caiman-filled lagoon adjacent to the village. Several mom & pop palapa roofed, sand floored restaurants dot the beach. The surf is mellow and the isolated beach stretches unabated to the north for 3+ miles to Boca de Iguana campground. There are a few budget hotels in town and several vacation, ocean view villas above the village. It's Real Mexico with nothing to do but, fish, swim, snorkel, beach hike, kayak, horeseback ride, boat, or just plain relax in this sleepy village that time has forgotten. I highly recommend spending several days here soaking up the sun and cultural ambiance of this sleepy village on the pristine Bay of Tenacatita!

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! (Page process time: 0.0019 seconds) |
