📷 Top Attractions
No.1 Los Mochis
Alamos
Álamos is a well-preserved colonial silver-mining town in Sonora, northwestern Mexico, booming in the 17th–18th centuries on silver and now a 'Pueblo Mágico'. White churches, wrought-iron balconies and cobbled lanes keep the old mining-town grandeur, ringed by tropical dry forest — a quiet, nostalgic destination.
Sightseeing
No.2 Los Mochis
Plazuela 27 de Septiembre
The Plazuela 27 de Septiembre is Los Mochis' civic living room, named for a Mexican civic date and ringed by municipal buildings, commercial arcades and palms. With a musical fountain and benches, it fills at dusk with strollers and nearby market-goers — an easy stopover in this railway city on the way to Álamos or Copper Canyon.
Sightseeing
No.3 Los Mochis
lover' s beach
Lover's Beach is a unique two-faced beach near the sea arch—one side faces the calm Sea of Cortez, gentle for swimming; the other faces the rough Pacific, with high waves and strong currents, called Divorce Beach. The same beach has utterly different seas on each side—a wonder of nature. Reached only by boat, the golden sand lies between rugged rocks—scenic and private. Swim and sunbathe on the calm side and enjoy the unique meeting of two seas—a distinctive Cabo beach experience.
