Is Manzanilla cruise port worth a visit?

 Manzanilla is not worth being a destination on its own, but it’s ok as one of many ports on your Mexican cruise.  There was a recent earthquake so there is a damaged Malecon, and many buildings.  Below is what is good about this port:

1. Easy walk off the ship and a five minute walk to the old town and the Sailfish sculpture.

2. Shopping while not plentiful is cheap for T-shirts, hats. But not many ceramics

3. Locals are friendly

4.  Wall art is really interesting- photo worthy

5. Fisherman are fun to watch bringing and selling fish

Not sogood 

beaches are far away

You can walk the old town in an hour

Malecon is under construction 

Overall an ok port for one visit

Hope this helps
