2014 will close in Mazatlán with the return of cruise ships calling on its
port. A total of 35 cruise ships will have docked in the city during the year
when the clock strikes midnight. Those ships will have brought 83,891 tourists
with them along with their money to spend while they visit the Land of the
Deer.
The Ministry of Tourism for Sinaloa told reporters that the return of cruise ships has benefited service providers, shops, tour operators, restaurants and a variety of vendors to the tune of 110 million pesos ($8.5 million).
Mazatlán’s Port Authority estimates that each arriving cruise ship brought with it an average of 2,400 passengers, the third highest tourists per ship in the last 14 years.
Along with the cruise passengers were a total of 32,875 people who crew the ships, many of whom disembarked for part of the day to visit and spend their money in Mazatlán.
Today the cruise ships Norwegian Star and Crown Princess will be docked in the city, as the last 6,336 cruise ship tourists for 2014 enjoy our city by the sea.
