Mangoes, coconuts, papayas, bananas... On this excursion from Manzanillo, we'll travel to Melaque and Barra de Navidad to visit different farms and learn all about Mexican tropical fruits. Welcome to Jalisco!
Tropical Fruit Tour
After picking you up at the indicated time at your hotel in Manzanillo, we'll hit the road toward Melaque and Barra de Navidad.
During the tour, we'll visit different Mexican tropical fruit plantations in the surroundings of these coastal towns located in the state of Jalisco. We'll get to see banana, mango, coconut, papaya, and lime farms. What's the process for harvesting these tropical fruits? What's the most suitable climate? How are they planted? We'll learn all the ins and outs!
In the vicinity of the farms, you'll also be able to purchase and taste some of these tropical fruits. Then, with our energy renewed, we'll go to Melaque Beach, whose west end is sheltered from the big swells. Anyone fancy taking a dip?
We'll also pass through Barra de Navidad, a small fishing village full of traditional boats with which the locals round up scallops and other fresh fish. There we'll leave you free time for lunch at a local restaurant - the seafood in this area is very tasty!
After six hours, we'll arrive back at your hotel in Manzanillo.
