The Stone Island Tour is hands-down the most popular and most economical day trip in all of Mazatlán — and once you’ve experienced it, you’ll understand why! Among all the boat tours in town, nothing beats the value of this beach break: a scenic catamaran cruise, tractor ride, delicious lunch, open bar, beach time, water activities, and more. Whether you’re staying in Mazatlán or docking for the day on a cruise ship, this tour is the perfect way to soak up sun, sand, and island vibes.
Mazatlan Catamaran Cruise
Your adventure kicks off with a one-hour cruise across the beautiful bay aboard one of Mazatlán’s top catamarans. Enjoy endless blue water, ocean breeze, and postcard-worthy views of “El Faro,” one of the tallest natural lighthouses in the world. As you glide along the shoreline, you’ll explore smaller islands, caves, and unique rock formations teeming with birdlife — and keep an eye out for dolphins! In season, you’ll even cruise past a sea lion colony where these adorable locals often wave right back at you.
All-Inclusive Beach Break at Stone Island Mazatlan
Once you arrive at Stone Island, hop onto an open-air cart pulled by tractor for a fun little ride through the island community. Your destination? One of the best beach restaurants on Stone Island — a huge palapa with plenty of shade, clean bathrooms, and miles of soft sandy beach waiting just steps away.
Settle into your table, grab a cocktail from the open bar, and let island life take over. A delicious lunch is included with options for everyone — fish, chicken, burritos, quesadillas, and vegetarian choices too. Even if you do nothing more than sip, snack, sunbathe, and sway in the shade, the Stone Island Beach Break gives you maximum value for minimum pesos.
