Mazatlan Mexico
Warm and beachy
Mazatlán is just 8miles south of the Tropic of Cancer. This is the Me-hee-co
you come to when all you want to do is lie back on the sand, tip that
sombrero way down over your chin and soak up the relaxed coastal rays.
As well as being a prime resort area, Mazatlán is Mexico's principal
Pacific coast port for fishing and trade. It's famous for sport fishing,
with thousands of sailfish and marlin tagged and released each year, and
is home to Latin America's largest fleet of commercial shrimp vessels.
Mexico Cruise Destinations
The state is bordered by the United States on the north, the
Pacific Ocean on
the west, the Gulf of
Mexico and the
Caribbean Sea on the east, and Guatemala and Belize on the south.
Mexico is more than 1,200 miles wide along its northern border with the
United States, but narrows to only 130 miles in the south, between the
Bay of Campeche
and the Gulf of
Tehuantepec.
In northwestern Mexico, the peninsula of
Baja California
extends southeast below California. In the southeastern part of the
country, the
Yucatán Peninsula extends northeast toward Cuba, separating the Gulf
of Mexico from the Caribbean Sea. |
