Get ready for one of Mazatlán’s most thrilling traditions! At El Clavadista, you'll witness local divers leap from a rocky platform over 45 feet (14 meters) high into the crashing waves below. The divers must wait for the exact moment when the tide is high enough to dive safely, all while standing barefoot on the edge of a sharp cliff with the wind and ocean roaring below. Here’s what makes this stop special: ✅ Adrenaline and tradition – Cliff diving in Mazatlán dates back to the 1960s and is performed by daring locals who’ve mastered the timing and risk. ✅ Perfect photo and video spot – You’ll be right next to the action with dramatic ocean backdrops, crashing waves, and the diver in midair. ✅ Scenic surroundings – This viewpoint also offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, nearby islands, and part of the Malecón. ✅ Optional tip to the divers – After the performance, it’s common to leave a small voluntary tip as a sign of appreciation for their brave art.

Angela Peralta Theater – We'll stop at this architectural gem, a neoclassical-style theater that dates back to the 1870s. It’s one of the most iconic cultural landmarks in Mazatlán, still hosting concerts and performances today. Plazuela Machado – One of the oldest plazas in the city, surrounded by cafés, galleries, and art. It's a perfect spot to get off the pulmonía for a quick walk, a drink, or photos under the shade of trees and string lights. Local Art & Murals – As we drive, you’ll see striking murals, small art studios, and colorful corners perfect for photos — details that are easy to miss in a large tour bus, but not in a pulmonía. Why a Pulmonía? Driving through these tight, lively streets in a pulmonía allows for a closer, more personal view of everything. Unlike enclosed vehicles, a pulmonía gives you 360° views, fresh air, and the freedom to stop spontaneously — for a photo, a café, or a story. It’s not just transportation — it’s part of the experience.

Located on Aquiles Serdán Avenue between Alejandro Quijano and Luis Zúñiga streets in the Historic Center, Las Changueras are local women who sell fresh seafood daily from early morning until evening. Their specialty is shrimp, offered fresh, dried, in cocktails, for aguachile, breaded, or ceviche. They also sell octopus, scallops, crab, smoked marlin, and fresh fish. This tradition started over 40 years ago when these women bought shrimp directly from fishermen using a tool called a “chango,” which inspired their name. Visitors love buying fresh shrimp here and often take it to nearby restaurants like Mariscos Dunia or El Ancla de Oro to have it cooked to their liking for a small fee. Las Changueras offer an authentic taste of Mazatlán’s coastal life and are a must-visit for fresh seafood lovers.
