The flag of Ahome is white with the municipal coat of arms centered upon it, modified to appear upright on an indoor flag. There is also a desktop version, which uses the more common version of the coat of arms (sky is not blue in the most common one). It has not been adopted by official means, such as law.
Note: The indoor flag bears the national colors on its cravat.

The coat of arms was designed by Francisco Rodríguez, winning first place in a contest and receiving 10000 pesos in 1978. The contest was done originally for a 75th anniversary logo, but the council liked it and decided to keep it as the coat of arms of their municipality instead. The upper section depicts the Cerro de la Memoria with a lighthouse, which existed from the 30's to 70's; it should be noted that Los Mochis is not a port. To its left is the sun. and to the left a cloud, both typical of an environment. Below the cloud is a sugar mill, reason for the founding of Los Mochis. In the lower half, on the left side, there is a field signifying the importance of agriculture here. To the right, a cogwheel for industry and progress. Two waves with a fish over it are found above, signifying the coast it has and the fishing industry. Below the shield is the name AHOME and roots extending from it, signifying the efforts of the people in building the area up.
