The best Italian food in Manzanillo and the restaurant is right on the marina at the Las Hadas Hotel. Not a better setting anywhere in the city. You need to go though the security gates of the hotel so just tell them you are going to the Marina for dinner. After dinner make sure you go for a walk along the marina and or the beach at the hotel.

This is one of the best hikes in Manzanillo with the end result being at the cross overlooking the whole town. Depending on your group can be an hour hike to a max of maybe 3 hours if slow. Ask Peder your host about this as getting to the trail head needs some explanation.

This is great hike starting just outside of the small town La Central and finishing at the top of the main radio towers. The hike is uphill all the way and then of course downhill the whole way back. Minimum of 4 hours total. The views at the top are well worth it. Do not do on a cloudy day or you will not have the payoff of the views once you get to the top.
