San Carlos Vista Point
Tourist attraction
👍👍 One of the most beautiful viewpoints I have seen so far. The area is very well structured and very clean. The bathrooms are very clean as well. An extra incentive of this place is that a scene from one of the Zorro movies was filmed right here. Can you guess which one by the following pictures an...

Delfinario Sonora
Aquarium
👍👍 Beautiful time spent with my family visiting Delfinario. Most of the group speaks spanish and only I dont. However, it was interactive and still informative. I wish there was english translation as it is a tour spot and many spoke English their. I would still give it a 5 star as it is about the expe...

Playa Los Algodones
Beach
👍 This beach has nicer, white sand. Gets busy but plenty of space. 30 pesos entrance fee for parking. Unbeknownst to us using one of their shades/tables/chairs, the rental is 250 pesos. We went on a very windy day, but the water was refreshing and we enjoyed our short trip there!

Club de Playa Marinaterra

👍 Beach area in front is a mixture of rocky and sandy areas. Crystal clear waters protected by surrounding cliffs. Ideal for launching kayaks, calm bay area, with islands very close by. Did not stay in the Club MarinaTerra.

Caracol Beach
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Not an easy walk to especially after a day of swimming and fun. Parking is limited but definitely worth it. The beach is small and on the edge of the marina boat exit so there is noise. You can enjoy corals on the edge and walk along the shore all the way to the open sea.

Canyon Nacapule
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Beautiful hike. Open on Christmas day. I think it would be much safer and nicer if it were better marked and there was a map but I'll give it 5 stars anyway. Camping, grills, restroom available. Zip line was closed.

Escollera Miramar

👍 Went two days in a row on a Wed. & Thurs. around 10:00 am. 6 people on entire beach. Nice thing about this beach is it is all sand. All other beaches so far are rocky/pebbly. So no reef shoes needed.

San Francisco Beach, San Carlos MX.
Beach
👍👍 Outstanding beach situated between Bahia Dolphin on the Sea of Cortez and a magnificent estuary. Wildlife abounds. Pods of dolphins regularly cruise the shore and sea birds of all descriptions change with the seasons. A true gem.

Cerro Tetakawi
Hiking area
👍👍 Steep, but quick hike with amazing views. Start early morning to avoid heat. Gloves recommended. Stay left on the trails at the beginning until the trail becomes obvious. After the ropes, don't get discouraged, keep going 2 more minutes for amazing views of the ocean and San Carlos. Be prepared to s...

Playa Miramar
Tourist attraction
👍👍 An excellent beach to go with children. The water level is very low, which is excellent for children and babies. There are not so many waves
And they sell some food.
It is a good place to go with family or friends

La Posada Beach
Beach
👍👍 The environment is very fun and chill. The people who work there are kind. The food is good too, it could use a little bit more salt though in my opinion. But absolutely lovely experience.

Bahía Delfin
Tourist attraction
👍👍 A very quiet beach, ideal for visitors who come with their families. It is very common to see dolphins near the coast, especially in the mornings. The sea is usually calm. The only bad thing is that people commonly do not pick up their trash and it can be annoying for other visitors.
