We want to tell you more about what the Boulevard Costero offers; now in this post we are going to talk about “El Malecón” (The Boardwalk) a place that gives us a beautiful view of the bay.
You can start your journey at “La Ventana al Mar” the home of a monumental Mexican flag, walking north on the right side, you will find a wide variety of restaurants and street food vendors that offer everything from a gourmet meal to the traditional Mexican churros, from a delicious tea infusions to a soda; on your left side you will have a view of the bay and many docks in which you can see large sea lions taking a long break, also some of the docks offer the opportunity to have a boat trip around the bay or to make a fishing trip that will undoubtedly give you an experience to tell your friends.
When it seems that you have finished your walk and there is nothing more to see, you will find “El Mercado Negro” (The Black Market) the largest fish market of Baja California. In this place you will find fish and seafood of high quality, a mix of unmistakable flavors and smells, different species like chocolate and pismo clam, smoked tuna and marlin, white fish, squid, shrimps, among many others. Part of the attraction of this fish market is that it offers many different street food vendors that have a great variety of seafood cocktails, soups, fish stews in many ways and, of course, the unique fish tacos recipe created in our beautiful port.
