La Paz – Boat Items & Services

(sorry, no links here to keep invaders from crashing this site)

MARINAS


Marina de La Paz

Our preference. It’s walkable to many places one would want to go.  Very professional and helpful staff. Facilities are in excellent condition. Laundry and mini-mart on site. Shower facilities neat and clean.  Club Cruceros is on the property as well.

CHANDLERIES

If you like something like Petit Trinidad paint (you may want to bring it down from U.S.). Comex (Mexican paint company) makes hard and ablative marine paints. Expendables like waxes etc. are quite more expensive here versus USA. And rarely is any marine gear in Mexico cheaper than what can be purchased in USA. DEKO MARINE is one company that will ship items down to Mexico.

LOPEZ MARINE
Well stocked marine store (also carries scuba/snorkeling gear). If they don’t have it they can probably get it (they stock and can obtain many items from West Marine).
