The intent for this malecon is good but its execution is lacking. There are areas of trash and graffiti and not many tourists. I was there on a Friday afternoon and it was dead. Vendors weren't even there. The smell from the bay is also atrocious.

Nice malecon lots of history here I was really surprised didn't expect it to be such a great place to walk and atvthe same time learn with all the cool monuments with information about the history of Chetumal. The food at good prices at the plaza central from all the vendors. And the bus ride for about 2 dollars each person was a big plus. Lots of parking spaces in front of the malecon.

Shops up on Saturdays and Sundays. Lots of families enjoying the eateries and the sunset. Trampoline for kids etc.

El Malecón Chetumal is really pretty and a few things to do. 1. Visit the statue 2. Mexico letter 3. Base is there too 4. Walking distance (10 minute walk) there local shops and places to eat. To get there you need a local taxi. Ubers aren’t authorized to go into certain areas in Chetumal. If you are traveling from Bacalar to Chetumal, get a taxi colectivo. It’s $50 pesos per person and drops you off at the main plaza.

This is a public walk. It is by the sea. There is a bike lane and an area for strolling. Every so often the is a small park area. The sea wall is low and you can seat on it. There are food vendors, especially at night. I had fresh coconut water one morning when I went to walk. It was lovely- and the coconut flesh was put in a bag for me with a squeeze of fresh lemon and hot pepper. It is so Mexican, so beautiful.

Chetumal a city in a very interesting ecosystem. Close to Belize gives you the opportunity to discover multiple cultures. Good bird watching and fishing expeditions. (Bonefish, Permit, Tarpon) Nice place to start a trip north towards the busy Cancun city (By car or motorcycle its a flat road), enjoying, Bacalar, Mahahual, (Scuba diving - By the time you arrive to the next city, you already cover the 24hrs before flying), Tulum, Playa del Carmen ... If you need GT Hotels, air-condition and busy tourist environment to survive, fly directly to Cancun.

Visited on a Wednesday afternoon in September, after a trip to Bacalar. The weather was excellent for the walk and the sea breeze was refreshing. It started to get busier in the evening for sunset but unfortunately I had to return to Tulum.

About 4.5 hours drive straight south of Cancun along the border of Belize. This small city of 175,000 on the Maya Riviera is very underrated by tourists, which is good. You won't find white sandy beaches, prices in American $ or $300 a night hotels, but it's affordable living for expats escaping the winter. The winter months are sunny and hot. During the day the Melecon is quiet. But at night there is a street festival along the Melecon (ocean sidewalk). Great cheap street food, rides for kids and artisans. Very family friendly. There are a number of ruins within an hour and a couple of small fresh water lakes. Some of the best roads in mexico. Streets with divided palm tree boulevards. If you are travelling and want to relax and see what a typical Mexican city looks like without tourism stop here.

Take me back.... I love Chetumal

Nice place to walk and eat street foods.

Beautiful place , little peaceful town.

A nice quiet park with historical monuments, a high water mark from Hurricane Janet, and a gazebo next to the Governor's Mansion by day. At night it is a hub of activity for families to gather for food, and relaxation on the bay.Rides, games and toys for the kids. Very busy on the weekends.

This place looks so much better now! They really invest and make it look nice, so happy I got to visited it again. Planning to go back already

Super lovely for a walk around, very calm and clean.

If you're looking for something to eat, there are lots of places to choose from!

Great place to walk and get goodies to eat. Beautiful!!!

We couldn’t see much of it because it was raining but it was a nice walk

It’s good it’s definitely no PV but it’s a cute small town and very convenient to arrive there and take a bus to Belize or boat to San Pedro one of Belize islands.

Relaxing, cozy and nice You should eat machacado And enjoy the view and sunset

Such a great place to walk at night with you significan other, family or alone. You will find lots of food to eat along the whole place, like tacos marquesitas and all kind of mexican yummies, a few artcraf vendors as well. We got to experience the pink moon rising from the night of the sea it was an incredible experience We had a great night .
