With this ticket to the 1873 Observatory, you’ll explore a historic monument on the Mexican Pacific coast and visit Munba, the National Whale Museum!
When making your booking, you'll be able to choose one of the options described below. In both cases, you'll need to get to Observatory 1873 on the Cerro del Vigía in Mazatlán at your chosen time.
Originally built by the people of Mazatlán, the famous 1873 Observatory sits on the Cerro del Vigia, 246 feet (75 metres) above sea level.
With your ticket to the 1873 Observatory, you'll be able to explore all its facilities. Your self-guided visit will begin with a short film about Mazatlán. Next you'll hop aboard the Observatory's funicular, which was Elevator World magazine's Project of the Year award winner in 2021.
Once you're on the funicular, you can visit a house-museum with 19th-century furniture. Another spot you won't want to miss would be the distillery, where a mezcal simulator is recreated. We also recommend stopping by the El Nido bird sanctuary, where over 70 species such as macaws, parrots, parakeets, flamingos, toucans, iguanas and turtles await.
Some of the other highlights include the Cueva del Patrón, which is a former dungeon of the Cerro del Vigía, and the agaviarium. This desert garden is located in front of the largest natural lighthouse in the world.
The Munba, the National Whale Museum, houses an impressive collection of skeletons of marine giants from Mexico and the world. You can learn about the fascinating life of these large marine animals through the different interactive rooms.
