Yacht charter in Mexico – the main ports
There are many excellent free moorings in Mexico, as well as many well-equipped marinas. Here are some of them:
Northern Pacific Ocean Coast
Mazatlán
The city’s port, called El Cid, is way more than a simple landing opportunity. There is a bustling market and several miles of nearby beaches with golden sand. The local dive shop is excellent, you can get all the necessary equipment here. In the port area, you will find plenty of high-quality accommodation opportunities.
Nuevo Vallarta
Upon landing, we find ourselves in Paradise Village. This place can meet all your needs. Nearby Puerto Vallarta is a tourist attraction with its cosy, cobbled streets and its breathtakingly majestic cathedral.
La Cruz
Marina Riviera Nayarit is one of Mexico’s most unique ports. It lies on the north coast of the calm Banderas Bay. There is a wonderful promenade overlooking the whole bay. This is the only full-service port on the Pacific Ocean coast, with a capacity to accommodate up to 340 vessels.
Barra de Navidad
A small village and a wide beach around a bay provide a great opportunity for surfing. Diving is also possible in the southwestern end of the bay. Good restaurants await tourists on the beach.
The California Peninsula Coast
Ensenada
It is the third-largest city in the federal state of Baja California Sur. If arriving from the USA, here is the place where we can enter Mexican territorial waters. The weather is nice most of the year: if you can, spend a couple of days here.
Southern Pacific Ocean Coast
Zihuatanejo
In the seventies, it was nothing more than a sleepy little fishing village. The adjacent Ixtapa recreation complex was built up, and it caused a development boom in “Zihua” which nonetheless still preserves something from its old charm. Its narrow, cobbled streets are full of excellent local restaurants, bars, boutiques, and handicraft studios. Fishermen meet on the beach each morning at Paseo del Pescador, “Fishermen’s Street”, to sell the daily catch. At the waterfront promenade, you can always have a romantic walk.
Huatulco
Huatulco lies on the edge of the Sierra Madre Mountains in the state of Oaxaca, 20miles from the Mexican Pacific Ocean Coast, between the Coyula and Copalita rivers. There are more than 25 berths on the 10-mile shoreline, in a beautiful natural setting surrounded by resorts.
California Gulf
La Paz
La Paz is the most city in southern Mexico on the Baja California Península. It has several ports. One of the best-equipped ports is Marina Cortez, located in the heart of the bay. It offers a number of exclusive services for even the largest sea yachts.
Another big port’s name is Marina Costa Baja. This port includes a wide variety of services. It satisfies the basic needs of sailors well since there are electricity and petrol station in the port. Marina Costa Baja is a perfect moorage, which offers proper shelter and is suitable for any boat type. The port is a paradise for boat owners. It provides first-class convenience and modern services. It has an exceptionally good infrastructure. It’s not only accessible from the sea but also close to the airport. It’s due to the standards of this establishment that nowadays more and more people opt for boat rental.
Mexico is a truly colourful country that includes everything from beautiful beaches, milling nightlife, to a rich cultural heritage. Dive, hike, boat, or just relax under the shadow of palm trees! Don’t forget to bring some souvenirs home, for example, a taster of the original tequila or some traditional sombrero hats.
Beaches in Mexico
For you to find the perfect Mexican beach for sunbathing and riding the waves, we collected some super options.
Zihuatanejo beach:
The Zihuatanejo beach lies 160miles northward for Acapulco. It’s popular for its clean beaches and cobbled streets. The Playa La Ropa lined with picturesque palm trees is a preferred place for sports such as diving.
Cozumel beach:

If you’re brave enough, discover nearby islands by yourself with a yacht. The charisma of Cozumel is so attractive that it draws thousands of tourists all year.
Cancún beach:
The coast of Cancún is part of the area that the Wilma hurricane overwashed in 2005. Nowadays, however, there’s no sign of this. In the southeastern area, you can experience the golden era of beaches, golf, and nightlife again. Cancún is still among the most beloved summer resorts on the Western Hemisphere.
Main sights of Mexico
It would be a truly difficult job, to sum up, all the sights of Mexico in just a few sentences. You should definitely visit the city of Izamal. This city is so unique that you’ll remember it forever. Izamal has the nickname yellow city because every building is painted yellow. The ancient Mayan ruins are in the center of the city. Mazatlan was incredibly famous for its 20 km long beach in the 20th century. Today it attracts visitors again with historical sites, educational museums, and sandy beaches. If you visit Cancún beach, don’t forget to see the acrobatic dance performances in the Coco Bongo Cancún. And if you come here, certainly visit Chitchén Itzá.

To the south the temperature is constant all year, it only changes with the altitude. In Mexico, there are two main seasons. Although there is some variation in temperature over the year, the most obvious difference is between rainy and dry seasons. The rainy season through most of Mexico falls roughly from May through September or October. The temperature increases gradually from north to south so that the south has a purely tropical climate. Altitude plays an important role as well. There are many cities located at high altitudes, including the capital, which have a cooler climate. In high mountains and volcanoes, the climate becomes alpine. In the plains and hills of the south, it is hot all year round.
The average annual temperature of areas below 1000 m is between 24 and 28 °C. In the north, the low-lying areas have a lower average temperature from 20 to 24 °C. Big cities lying in the Valley of Mexico have an average annual temperature of 16 to 18 °C. It becomes moderately rainy in the mountain ranges and the southern plateaus, while it’s very rainy in some tropical southern areas. Summer is the rainiest season almost everywhere. On the coast, the climate is generally balmy year-round, but some months are rainy and others dry. Moving towards the south, the sea becomes progressively warmer. Generally, the sea is always warm.
