Mazatlán beach forecast
Mexico · 30 beaches and resorts
Veabird grades 30 beaches and resorts in Mazatlán, Mexico, every six hours on seaweed, water, waves, weather and crowds. These beaches sit outside the Atlantic sargassum belt, so seaweed is rarely a factor. Across the region, average highs run from about 78°F in January and February to 90°F in July, August and September, and the sea from about 70°F to 86°F. Rain is most likely in August and least likely in April and May.
