At the nature reserves and ecological camping sites in Manzanillo’s surrounding areas you can do various outdoor recreational activities, such as hiking, which allows you to appreciate the region’s wildlife, and horseback riding, which offers a view of the bay. If you had something more adventurous in mind, we recommend Tyrolean rappelling, which involves harnessing yourself to a pulley and sliding down a cable at about 40 kilometers (25 miles) per hour between two platforms. This experience is only for the most intrepid travelers. At these places you can rent all the proper safety equipment.
