Introducing Central Pacific Coast
Those gigantic aquamarine waves keep rolling in, just as they always have along Mexico’s central Pacific coast. It’s the primal rhythm backing any visit to this land of isolated beaches and giant sunsets. Sit yourself down in the sand for a week or an afternoon and, if you’re lucky, spy humpback whales breaching on the horizon, or a pod of dolphins surfacing from the waves. Beyond the beach, experience a natural high in mangrove-fringed lagoons, pristine bays, and ramshackle fishing villages, or mix it up with some good living in a cosmopolitan resort town.
Don’t stop there: head deeper inland toward the blue silhouette of the lofty Sierras Madre, where the tourism track becomes a rutted path that sometimes disappears completely. You can take months exploring the coast on the cheap, roaring along the coastal highway in 2nd-class buses, or hanging onto the back of a pickup packed with locals on your way to a fishing village where fishing nets are still strung by hand.
