![Download free map and directions for day trip to Playa el Caimanero, Sinaloa](images/button-pdf-330x380-01.jpg) Playa el Caimanero is a beautiful unspoiled Sinaloa beach not far south of Mazatlan, and a terrific destination for a day trip. This beach paradise provides breathtaking tranquility most days of the year. On weekends and holidays this beach becomes very popular with Mexican families, and you may have to share paradise, but that only assures more vendors of really great stuff to eat!

If you want to get off the Caimanero beach, directly inland there are two very large lagoons -- which are really one extended body of water covering over 45,000 acres -- Laguna el Caimanero and, to the north, Laguna Huizache.
![](images/clear.gif)
These beautiful coastal lagoons are only slightly inland, and offer freshwater swimming, fishing and some really great bird watching -- they are home to over 20,000 shorebirds comprised of over 20 species!
