The Magic Of Acapulco
Acapulco was in its golden years one of the most important beach cities in the world. She was the darling of Hollywood actors and the European elite. Although today its power has been displaced by other tourist centers, it still retains the magic that one day made it so great.
We invite you to visit some of the most beautiful places that Acapulco has with us.
Acapulco: crystal clear beaches and fun
1. Icacos Beach
Icacos beach is one of the most popular in the port of Acapulco. This beach is crowned as the longest in Acapulco Bay, with 2,060 meters long.
This wonderful beach belongs to the tourist area called “Acapulco Dorado” and is one of the busiest in the port. It has been exploited by large hotel chains and merchants. Walking along the shore of this beach is particularly charming, since the golden sand, the crystal clear water and the most beautiful and luxurious buildings merge in one place.
2. La Condesa Beach
La Condesa beach is another of the most popular, especially at night, when a vibrant nightlife makes its way among tourists and locals.
In front of the beach, in the Farallón del Obispo, in El Morro, there is a rock well known for its legends. On the other side of the bay you will find a diversity of restaurants, clubs and bars overlooking the beautiful bay. If you want to spend a different night, full of the magic of Acapulco, you cannot miss La Condesa Beach.
3. Puerto Marqués
Puerto Marqués is one of the most beautiful corners that Acapulco hides. Its peaceful beaches are ideal to relax and go with children, since the waves are very moderate.
On this beach you can enjoy a wonderful day by the sea while you delight yourself with some of the culinary specialties of the area, such as fish to size. In addition, in the Mangrove area there are several companies that offer boat rides, jet skis and much more so that the fun never ends.
4. Caleta and Caletilla Beaches
These two beaches are also ideal to go with children or the elderly, since they have very little waves. Near the shore you can enjoy a wide variety of restaurants that offer their customers some of the typical dishes of the area.

Punta Diamante is one of the most exclusive areas of Acapulco. Here you can find the best hotels, shopping centers, restaurants, discos, bars and golf courses in the city.
6. La Quebrada
This is one of the most recognized places in the bay of Acapulco. It is a spectacular viewpoint that is located at the top of a cliff. Some brave bathers dare to dive into the water, regardless of the 35 meters of height they must travel before diving into the waters of the Pacific.
7. Fort San Diego
Acapulco also has a rich history, so we recommend you visit Fort San Diego, magnificently preserved and considered the most important fort in the Pacific Ocean. There is also a beautiful and very complete museum where you can learn much more about the history of this charming city.
8. Foot of the Slope
If you are a lover of water sports, Pie de la Cuesta should be among the places in Acapulco that you should know. This wonderful place is located 11 kilometers from the bay of Acapulco and is ideal for practicing sports such as surfing and water skiing.
In addition, if you want to take a romantic walk, we recommend you rent some horses and walk the entire shore of a beautiful lagoon that merges with the sea. Finish by tasting some of the most exquisite dishes of the region.
9. Papagayo Park
This beautiful park has 21 hectares of ecological and recreational reserve. It has three artificial lakes and extensive green areas, as well as a large number of exotic animal species.
This park has a library, children’s recreation, sports fields and much more. It is better known as “the lung of Acapulco”, for being the only one of its kind and for preserving the most extensive green areas in the entire city.
When we visit every corner of this wonderful port, we realize that Acapulco continues to preserve that touch of magic that makes it so special. Would you like to visit Acapulco?
