Great shop with lots of art and thing made by many different local artisans. Open garden space where people are working, not sure if they maybe do classes. At the entrance they also have a wee cafe with fantastic coffee (i love beans from Chiapas). Guaranteed to find something cool and unique here.

Reviewed By JFmnboy - Winona, United States
We spend every February in Mazatlan and after a week of the Mexican lagers, which I like, I crave a beer with some hoppy character and Tres Islas is the place for that. I'm always looking for restaurants that serve it and so far have found only El Presidio and Water's Edge (both great restaurants, by the way). Does anyone know of other places that serve Tres Islas?

10. Catedral Mazatlan Basilica de la Inmaculada Concepcion
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,117 reviews
Located in downtown Mazatlan, the architecture makes it well worth a visit.
Reviewed By TravelOffPath - Kelowna, Canada
The Mazatlán Cathedral (formally known as The Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception) is a gorgeous Baroque-Revival style Church in the middle of downtown’s ‘Centro’ area. Construction started on this church is 1856 but didn’t finish until 1899, due do financial troubles within the church. The outside is painted a lovely yellow, while the inside is uniquely ornate with chandeliers, wood, marble and gold. Sometimes the church is closed to the public for Catholic weddings, but most of the time you’ll find it open to wander inside. Tip: A very interesting fact about its history is that the Jewish Community actually stepped in and funded the completion of the church, and in turn had the Star of David put into some of the windows. See if you can find them! Cost: free. But it’s always appreciated to leave a contribution to the church. How to get there: Type ‘Mazatlán Cathedral' into Google Maps or Uber. Walkable from cruise port. Address: 21 de Marzo, Centro
