| GRANDFATHERS’ LEGACY The word “Colima” comes from the Nauatl language, a dialect indigenous to this region of the Mexican Republic. “Coli” meaning grandfather and “Maitl” meaning domain, translate to place conquered by our grandfathers. |

   Colima is well-known for its traditional patios, parks, cleanliness and pure air. A short distance away, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the surrounding mountains and their lagoons. Visit Comala, a typical colonial town located about 5 or 6 miles north of Colima City. It is known for its arts and crafts, coffee plantations and characteristic cobblestone streets. And nearby Ex-hacienda de San Antonio is an 18th century hacienda surrounded by beautiful countryside – about 18 miles northeast of Comala. Going west from Colima, along the Colima-Manzanillo Highway, take a turn to Cuyutlan, about 37 or 38 miles from Colima. It is best known for its “Green Wave”, beautiful beaches and “white fish.” |
