Top 8 Budget-friendly Things to do in Ajijic, Mexico

July 14, 2021 Timmy Ribble

Ajijic, a small idyllic town in Mexico, is the perfect setting to enjoy a quiet and relaxing holiday. Enjoy a night of lively music in the plaza of this picturesque town or enjoy a stroll along the lakeside path. Visit the colorful Chapala handicrafts market, or relax and enjoy lunch and a beautiful view at the Beergarden restaurant by the pier. If you’re traveling with children, take them to Christiania Park, right next to the market. At the park, they can play on the expansive lawn or on the playground. Take a day trip to the Casacadas de Agua, a favorite spot with the locals and a great place to spend with family. Climb the waterfalls or swim in sparkling pools at the base of the falls. Find a shady spot to enjoy the lunch you packed at your holiday rental or try a local delicacy at one of the many small restaurants in the area.

Malecon de Ajijic

Reviewed By Oyam123 - Minnesota, United States

Just a nice quiet place to walk along the water and spend some quality time with yourself or others. If you need more stimulation or just a bite to eat the city rolls out for you just a block off the Malecon.

Lake Chapala Farmers' Market

Reviewed By 2LDs - Chapala, Mexico

...AND MORE! This is ”the place” to get your FRESH fruits and vegetables. And all at very reasonable prices! (Mexican Pesos) There also have many different wares for sale. Clothing, paintings, carvings, fresh meat (chicken), and all the beans, lentils, and candies you could ever imagine. This market is held weekly and is the only place to buy! Just don’t faint when you see the prices you'll pay compared to back in USA/CANADA! Best to come with smaller denomination $ (lots of them????) Come, buy & enjoy! You won't be disappointed!!

Ajijic Cemetery

Reviewed By Mattgriffin1965

Growing up in Chicago I had three different cemeteries surrounding my house. I played inside of these cemeteries by myself and with friends and was fascinated by the history of the sides and those buried in the grounds. Going to places like New Orleans and seeing the above ground burial plots and the celebration of life passed within these places always peeked my imagination. Going to a Mexican cemetery in Ajijic made me realize even more why I love Mexico, it’s culture, and people. They celebrate life and death equally and respect those that have long passed preserving the memories and the spirit of those who came before them!

Parroquia de San Andres Apostol

Reviewed By 732carltonm - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

This is a beautiful church and has lovely morning bells that may be heard all over town. At the very end of the street/highway (Guadalajara/Chapala highway). Beautifully decorated at Los Dias De Los Meuretes, Oct 31st - Nov 2nd. This is a very attractive architectural and religious gem at the lakes edge and all visitors should take a peek at it if at all possible.
