The first morning I woke up in Mazatlán I noticed quite the ruckus going on down on the street. There were loads of police and military people out in front of our building. I also noticed some military helicopters and boats roaming around. I didn’t get the feeling anything was wrong though, because everyone seemed …

The Neighbourhood
This is the more residential side of the Centro neighbourhood. Michelle and I went biking around this neighbourhood one day and it was really interesting to see how a lot of the locals to the neighbourhood lived. Obviously there is a lot in this picture, so we didn’t see it all, but from what we …
By The Beach
I love being down by the beach. When I shot this photo I was out for a bike ride, so I didn’t actually end up on the beach, but being near by is just as good for me. I rode my bike for miles along this beach that day and I was loving it. If …
More Sunsets Please
Sunsets are beautiful just about anywhere, but I especially like them over the Pacific Ocean. And even better yet, viewed from Mazatlán! Michelle and I were just out for a walk when we caught this one. I’m glad I had my camera with me because this one was a beauty. Thanks for stopping by, Rob
The Golden Zone
This part of town in Mazatlán is called “The Golden Zone” or as I like to call it, “The Gringo Zone” lol. There are a bunch of nice hotels, resorts and obviously beaches around here. I only went over here a couple times because I prefer something that feels a little more Mexican. But I …
Mercado Pino Suárez
This market is actually pretty huge. I didn’t take too many pictures in here because when I was there, I was mostly there to shop or eat. There are some resultants on the 2nd floor and the main floor is mostly shopping. There are loads of souvenir shops and plenty of clothing and whatever else. …
Calavera Jail
I love Calavera art so much. When I noticed these little skeletons sitting on the bars I had to get a picture. Obviously the little skeletons are not actually in jail, just sitting on the bars of what I think was an art studio if I remember correctly. It was either that or an art …
More Beach
There is plenty of beach to go around for everyone in Mazatlán. Some areas of the beach will have plenty of people, but if you just go down the beach a little further you will surely find an empty part of the beach if that’s what you prefer. Something for everyone really. As you can …
Night Shopping
So much shopping going on at Plazuela Machado at night. We bought a few things from here while we were there. I love these types of places and when they are done right they are so much fun. This place was great, plenty of food around, lots of interesting things/souvenirs to buy and the people …
Strings of Lights
Walking around Centro Historico at night in Mazatlán is so beautiful. There are all these strings of lights hanging between the buildings. The lights light up the streets and create such a wonderful ambiance to the city. When I’m walking around these streets I feel like I am in a movie and it’s a feeling …
Everyday Street
I love this street so much! I think I probably walked down this exact stretch of this street at least once a day while I was in Mazatlán. If not everyday, pretty darn close to it. Mazatlán is filled with beautiful streets to explore, but this one was probably my favourite. It’s just as beautiful …
Mirador Paseo Centenario
Michelle and I walked around Mazatlán SOOO MUCH! This was one of the days where we walked around a lot. This particular walk was rather rewarding because we got to experience some beautiful views and met some wonderful people along the way. I shot this photo of Michelle sitting on the ledge at Mirador Paseo …
Mosaic Mazatán
I love this sign and I love the street it’s on. This sign is right across the street from the beach. While we were in Mazatlán our apartment was on this street, but just like 5 minutes or so down the street. Our building was just around the bend by that cliff of the second …
