Just 30 minutes from the port of Mazatlan, the picturesque village of El Quelite is famous due to the beautiful red roof tiles houses, narrow cobblestone streets, colorful houses, and tropical flowers. The town is so picturesque that it inspired Francisco Terriquez to write the famous Mexican folk song, Que Bonito es El Quelite, "How Beautiful is El Quelite.“
Stroll through the town's cobblestone streets and meet the friendly locals. Sample pastry and fresh cheese from a very old bakery and shop for hand made crafts made by local artisans.
