Mazatlan Pulmonia Experience

At El Clavadista, you'll witness local divers leap from a rocky platform over 45 feet (14 meters) high into the crashing waves below. The divers must wait for the exact moment when the tide is high enough to dive safely, all while standing barefoot on the edge of a sharp cliff with the wind and ocean roaring below. Here’s what makes this stop special: ✅ Adrenaline and tradition – Cliff diving in Mazatlán dates back to the 1960s and is performed by daring locals who’ve mastered the timing and risk. ✅ Perfect photo and video spot – You’ll be right next to the action with dramatic ocean backdrops, crashing waves, and the diver in midair. ✅ Scenic surroundings – This viewpoint also offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, nearby islands, and part of the Malecón. ✅ Optional tip to the divers – After the performance, it’s common to leave a small voluntary tip as a sign of appreciation for their brave art.

It’s one of the most iconic cultural landmarks in Mazatlán, still hosting concerts and performances today. Plazuela Machado – One of the oldest plazas in the city, surrounded by cafés, galleries, and art. It's a perfect spot to get off the pulmonía for a quick walk, a drink, or photos under the shade of trees and string lights. Local Art & Murals – As we drive, you’ll see striking murals, small art studios, and colorful corners perfect for photos — details that are easy to miss in a large tour bus, but not in a pulmonía. Why a Pulmonía? Driving through these tight, lively streets in a pulmonía allows for a closer, more personal view of everything. Unlike enclosed vehicles, a pulmonía gives you 360° views, fresh air, and the freedom to stop spontaneously — for a photo, a café, or a story. It’s not just transportation — it’s part of the experience.

Smell the fresh tortillas, see vibrant fruit stands, and maybe try some local treats. No pressure to buy — just a real look at daily life in Mazatlán.
