Beach near León, Mexico

León Travel Guide

Mexico

León is a large Mexican city with a population of 1,721,199. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal resort, so the city itself is the main base for exploring the area.

Most air travellers arrive through Guanajuato International Airport (BJX), the airport serving León. There are no notable beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so a beach trip requires travelling farther afield.
