Playa Yates
It is a very small and intimate beach a block away from the Villa. You can walk or swim along the bay. Weekdays is pretty much empty.
Playa la Audiencia
It is within a walking distance from the villa. At the end of the cul de sac take the stairs down. If you are adventurous you can also swim across the bay from the villa. The bay is quite safe.The beach has boat rides, banana rides, jet sky rides, all that sort of stuff...
Pueblos de Santiago and Salahua
Shops, restaurants. Fresh food market (meat and vegetables).
It is a five minute ride in a taxi from the villa, or a 30 minute walk.
I'd go for the taxi anytime. Is about 3 dollars each trip.
Playa de Santiago
This is a long beach, and the ocean waves are stronger. Perfect for riding the waves if you are into surfing.
Manzanillo Port
Very interesting site if you like the big boats and shipping containers.
About 20 minutes by car.
Downtown Manzanillo
Shops,the Municipal Palace (government offices), the downtown central square.
Downtown is where Mexicans shop: you will find a fresh food market (meat and vegetables). A Mexican Mercado Público is an experience you don't want to miss.
Deep Sea Fishing
Manzanillo is known as the world's capital of sailfishing. Rent a boat that will take you out into the deep ocean for as long as you want. Even if you don't catch a sailfish, you will have a lot of fun.
Bahia de Manzanillo
Long and full of restaurants of all levels, especially along the main Boulevard. If you or your kids are desperate you will find there a McDonalds and also a Starbucks.
Nevado de Colima
Live volcano. When is active, you can drive up the mountain and see it spewing lava. You will need a car, and it will take you a couple of hours to get there.
Water sites
There is a River full of trees and birds and a water fall 100 feet high and a Lagoon full of exotic birds. Did you know that México has over a thousand bird species and most of them live around here? So don't forget your binaculars.
