Destinations
Description It's playtime in palm-tree-shaded Manzanillo where the weather's perfect nearly every day and outdoor activities abound. On land there's golf, horseback riding and hiking, biking and bird watching. By the sea, sunbathe and picnic in privacy on unspoiled beaches. Go deep-sea fishing. Or take a guided kayak or snorkeling tour in a tranquil bay that centuries ago sheltered Hernán Cortés from brazen buccaneers.
Local Information The official currency of Mexico is the Mexican Peso. American funds are widely accepted, though we recommend buying some pesos, especially for shopping at the local markets and tips. Currency can be exchanged at casas de cambio (exchange houses), banks, and hotels, though the latter usually have the highest rates and tack on a service fee. ATMs are readily available and accept foreign bankcards. Major credit cards are widely accepted.
