A Day Trip To Mazatlan -The Mexican Magic Jan 2016

On 4th day, our Cruise Ship docked at the Mexican Golden Pacific Coast Port of MAZATLAN, a major Cruise Ship Port as well as one of the world's largest Tuna and Shrimp fleets Center.

The harbor in Mazatlan is the meeting point for the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean. This creates one of the greatest natural fish traps in the world.

This is a beautifully laid out town with roads and lanes criss crossing at 90 degrees. Now a Spanish speaking population originally came from Germany and settled here to make it as their home.
