Malecón & Plaza Cívica

Malecón de Ensenada

A harbourside promenade with a giant Mexican flag, golden statues of three national heroes, cruise ships and sea lions.

The seaside promenade runs from the fish market along Todos Santos Bay to the Mirador del Mar park, where you can see fishing boats, cruise ships and sea lions lazing in the sun. In the middle section, Plaza Cívica is home to giant golden busts of three national heroes, Hidalgo, Juárez and Carranza, which are among the city's emblems. Nearby, ticket booths sell whale-watching and sport fishing trips. Entry is free, though the promenade is crowded on days when cruise ships dock.
