What to do and see in Manzanillo, Colima: The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups

May 2, 2022 Florencio Paulino

Magical, historic, cultural, intimate – these are but a few of the words that best describe the balmy and magical escape that is Manzanillo on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. A lush, tropical environment welcomes travelers – verdant hillsides make way for sandy beaches, a setting that just begs for outdoor adventures and lazy days by the ocean. Visit between December and April and you’re likely to glimpse one of the playful whales swimming in Manzanillo Bay. By night, the village is full of energetic nightlife and restaurants are full to the brim. It’s all the charm of old world Mexico with every 21-century creature comforts you could want. While the crashing Pacific surf is sure to capture your attention for much of your time in Manzanillo, be sure to check out the countless other outdoor pursuits. Take an ATV off-road adventure, go deep-sea or sportfishing, head out hiking on an eco tour or take to the sea by kayak. Go sailing, snorkeling, SCUBA diving and surfing, then head back to shore for some shopping. Lace up your tennies for a volcano or waterfall tour.

Went here three times on our holidays, fantastic beach to walk and swim. Plenty of options to stop for a rest, drink food etc. Not busy like Puerto Vallarta. Various places have happy hour drinks.

Bahia de Manzanillo

One of two major bays situated directly north of the city.

Reviewed By EagleBayBC

The northwest bay stretch of beach in Manzanillo is the best for walking, especially as you near the most northwest end at Club Santiago. There it is easy to enter the water which is very clear. Lots and lots of beach club options along the the entire 5km stretch. An especially nice one is the Oasis Ocean Club nearer the Club Santiago area. A great way to spend your day at the beach.
