Question

Is Mazatlan considered as nice of a vacation spot as Cabo?

Answer 1

Mazatlan is a large, older city (a real city) and Cabo is a tourist town.  Very different in what they offer but depends on what you are looking for

Answer 2

Thank heavens, they are very different. Mazatlan is real Mexico. Cabo is a California concept of Mexico. With matching prices. But for a 7 day, 6 night vacation, both are good. After that, Cabo is boring.

Answer 3

I was in Mazatlan last year while on my honeymoon and it was not impressive.  Both my husband and I have said that once was more than enough.  We enjoyed our time in Puerto Vallarta and Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo 100% more than our time in Mazatlan.

Answer 4

Beachs are prettier and cleaner at Cabo.  Mazatlan is much dirtier everywhere.  While Cabo is mostly tourist there is a lot to do.
