SPOTLIGHT: Manzanillo
Today we are highlighting one of the most spectacular places on the Mexican Riviera, Manzanillo. Manzanillo is located in the state of Colima,
Manzanillo is one of Mexico's most important ports, receiving the largest volume of cargo in the country. The city is also well known for its fishing and many call it the "Sailfish Capital of the World".
The Las Hadas Resort, made famous by Bo Derek in the movie "10", is one of the most exclusive resorts in Mexico. The white Moorish-style resort is perched high on a hillside and has sweeping views of the bay.
The city, with one of the lowest crime rates in Mexico, has attracted people from all over the world. Manzanillo isn't as well known as some of Mexico's other resort towns, but residents say that is part of its charm. Manzanillo's beaches, Salahua, Las Hadas, Miramar, La Boquita, La Audiencia and Santiago are perfect for those looking for swimming or surfing.
There are plenty of good restaurants in Manzanillo. Some favorites are Bigotes, Juanitos, Oasis, and L'Recif.
