Rating Low Key But Safe
Beaches No gay beach, but Audienca, San Pedrito and Las Brisas are good swimming beaches.
Nightlife There are a couple of small gay bars (with mostly a local crowd) in downtown Manzanillo, about 15 minutes by cab from the hotel zone.
Best For Those looking for nice beaches as well as activities like golfing, diving and fishing.
Tips
  • Most of the resorts are on the Santiago Peninsula which is north of the commercial area of Manzanillo.
  • The resort area is quite distinct from the rest of the town. If you want local colour, you'll need to get out of the hotel zone. Try the main square on the waterfront.
