Towards the center of Mazatlan there is a "Boarwalk" which, however, is not build on boards but solid concrete. It separates the lagoons off the ocean from the ocean beaches and is some 10 or so km long: A main attraction for visitors and locals alike, it is always busy with hikers, sightseers and bikers as well as swimmers or surfers.
Here are some views:
All the shoreline visible on these photos is part of the Malecon seaside;
There are a few monuments and sculptures along the walk, tourists taking their pictures:
This looking south towards the end of the boardwalk - the Icebox Hill (Loma Linda), and riht in the middle of the hill side should be the property Joan is trying to buy - and from there they would have a view of the entire Malecon:
On the northern end there is an Indian-looking building, Valentinos, with a cafe and night club:
The entire beach is used by bathers and swimmers, and ususally you see surfers and borders playing the waves. You can rent boards right at the beach, and there are several palapa restaurants along the beach as well:
The center of town with the historic building area then would be a few blocks off the south end of the |Malecon.
