Malecón de La Paz
A roughly 5 km seafront promenade along La Paz Bay, perfect for strolling, cycling, watching sunsets, and admiring ocean sculptures.
La Paz's civic living room, the Malecón stretches along the bay from the old town to Playa Coromuel, covering about 5 km. Along the way you'll find ocean-themed sculptures, including whales, dolphins, and the "Dreamer Fisherman," plus piers and palm-lined walkways. In the evenings locals stroll and jog here. The bay faces west, so at sunset both the sky and the sea turn red. Across the promenade you'll find restaurants, ice cream shops, and bars, and the area is lively at night. Most boat tours gather at the pier here, and you can rent bicycles for a ride. Open all day, and free to visit.
