If you fly from Denver, Colorado less than 3 hours you arrive in Mazatlan, a Mexico Vacation destination. There are so many fun activities in the area, no matter what time of year you visit.

Mazatlan Mexico, in the state of Sinaloa Mexico, is

Mazatlán is a Nahuatl word meaning "place of the deer." The city was founded in 1531. By the mid-19th century a large group of immigrants had arrived from Germany. These new citizens developed Mazatlán into a thriving commercial seaport, importing equipment for the nearby gold and silver mines. It served as the capital of Sinaloa from 1859 to 1873. They also influenced the music, banda, which is an alteration of Bavarian folk music, and also started the Pacifico Brewery on March 14, 1900.

Mazatlán, with a population of 352,471 (city) and 403,888 (municipality) as of the 2005 census, is the second-largest city in the state (after Culiacán) and Mexico's largest commercial port.

It is also a popular tourist destination, referred to as the "Gold coast", located along the northwestern beach area of the city.

A car ferry plies its trade across the Gulf of California from Mazatlán to La Paz, Baja California Sur. The municipality has a land area of 3,068.48 km²

(1,184.75 sq mi) and includes smaller outlying communities such as Villa Unión, La Noria, El Quelite, El Habal and many other small villages. Mazatlán is served by Gral. Rafael Buelna International Airport.
