Manzanillo City Guide

Manzanillo Mexico offers a tranquil atmosphere that encourages the pursuit of unhurried pleasures. In fact, there's little to draw you away from the golden sand beaches and fantastic resorts of this pleasantly understated destination known as the "heavenly paradise. Manzanillo is set along two sparkling bays separated by the Santiago Peninsula, Manzanillo boasts dozens of golden sand beaches fringed by lush fruit plantations and jungle vegetation. Shopping, dining and nightlife are quite subdued, and the number of tourist spots is minimal in comparison to those found in other parts of Mexico's Pacific Coast. Instead, life centers on the Resort Zone. To the south, Bahia de Manzanillo offers an array of fabulous resorts with everything from water sports and deep-sea fishing to golf.

For those seeking more seclusion, Bahia de Santiago is a far less developed area with only two resorts and plenty of quiet. The coastal highway in between may lure you off the beach for a while with its restaurants, souvenir shops and nightspots, but you'll want to return in time for Manzanillo's brilliant sunsets that give way to star-filled nights.
