You may think in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo as the twin paradises,
both towns are just a short drive from one another. This double
destination has 16 miles of coast and satisfies totally different
needs, from authenticity-seeking adventurers to languorous
sun worshippers. Among the things this destination has to
offer are: stunning white-sand beaches, crystal clear waters for
all kind of water sports, luxury hotels, placid bays, and the taste
of small-town Mexican life.
Ixtapa is one of Mexico’s most compact planned resorts created
in the 1970s, with a hotel strip along the Playa del Palmar, a
two- mle long stretch of beautiful white sand. Here you will
find world-class resorts equipped with enough restaurants,
pools, and activities to keep families occupied for weeks. There
is also a pair of golf courses and a modern marina with slips for
600 vessels and upscale seafood restaurants. Ixtapa also offers
shopping malls, excellent boutiques, jewelry stores, handicraft
shops and a nautical atmosphere.
On the other hand, Zihuatanejo is a fishing village in a lovely bay
that offers visitors the opportunity to see the more traditional
side of Mexico. The original name was Cihuatlán which means
“land of women” in nahuatl, because the social organization
was a matriarchy. This place was a sacred sanctuary for
the prehispanic nobility, and there are vestiges of very old
civilizations as the Olmecs who lived 3000 B.C. The quaint
and pleasant village features single-story white houses and

cobblestone streets lined with nightspots, shops, hotes, and
restaurants that run the gamut from casual to ultraluxurious.
This nice environment combine with the traditions and charm
of local people, is always an invitation to get around the town.
Visitors have the option to stay in one of the inviting little
hotels in the center of town, or in one of the small luxury
hotels nestled along its lovely beaches.
More than 150 restaurants offer plenty of delicious choices,
but Zihuatanejo is the best place to try regional fish specialties
like “Tiritas”, made of thin fish strips marinated in lemon with
red onions and sliced hot peppers, the regional favorite, the
“pescadillas”, “ceviche”, fish and shrimp tacos, and “pescado a
la talla”.
The average temperature is 82˚ F and sunshine 300 days a
year. Even during the June-September rainy season showers
are brief and usually in the late afternoon or evening.
Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo is just three-hour drive from Acapulco
and 40-minute flight from México City. The superhighway
Century XXI that connects Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo with Morelia,
Michoacán, conveniently facilitates quick access by car: from
Mexico City in 6 hours, from Toluca, Querétaro and León in 5
hours, and from Morelia in only 3 and a half to 4 hours.

ihuacan Archeological Site
The largest site excavated in the coast of Guerrero and considered a treasure
of the Costa Grande, located in a small comunity named Soledad de Maciel, 20
minutes north of Zihuatanejo. It is believed that this was a ceremonial center
used by various cultures including the Tomiles, the Cuitlatecos and and the
Tepoztecas. According to the finds, the site had been occupied for more than
3,000 years and had contact with a number of other Mesoamerican cultures. It
has a site museum with 800 archeological pieces. One of the most important
pieces is a glyph, which is believed to relate to the original name of the city,
Xihuacan.
C
erro de los Brujos (Witches Hill)
The name refers to the clay pieces found in the place, because it is belived that
they belong to the ancient shamans. From a point named “Piedra del Encanto”
(Charming Stone), you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Lagoon of Potosí.
On the top of the hill, there is a flat rock engraved with what seems to be a
map of the town. There is a cave under the Stone, where explorers have found
traces of traces of quartz and jade, in the background there is ample space
with cave paintings. However, it should be noted that access to the cave is
complicated.
In this region, you can buy the tobacco by kilo, or buy a great cigar full of flavor.
V
alentin Lagoon

B
arra de Potosí
This small fishing village is located at the far tip of Playa Blanca’s seemingly
endless, palm-fringed sandy-white beach and at the mouth of the Laguna de
Potosí, a saltwater lagoon, home to different kinds of birds and the sanctuary
of local wildlife. Locals offer 90-minute boat tours or kayak tours of the lagoon.
The unspoiled beach backed by an almost unbroken line of palm trees is
a beautiful place to enjoy a horseback riding and beautiful sunsets. The
beachfront is lined with small restaurants that serve marvelous freshly-caught
sea food along with traditional Mexican dishes. In front of this beach are the
impressive Morros de Potosí, a cluster of massive rocks about 20 minutes
offshore, a favorite place for divers.

Beaches in Zihuatanejo
P
laya Principal (Main Beach)
The beach borders the edge of town, flanked by the
pedestrian Paseo del Pescador (“fisherman’s walkway”)
which extends about a half kilometer from the Municipal
Pier to the Archeology Museum. The charming, treeshaded Paseo is lined with shops, craft stands and
restaurants. Along the beach there are restaurants
with fresh seafood. Next to the beach, there is the Pier
where you can take a boat to Las Gatas Beach, rides run
continuously until the18:00 hrs. You can also charter
a small panga boat or a large, luxury fishing yacht for
fishing or snorkeling trips.
P
laya la Madera (Wood Beach)
This beautiful beach is ideal for swimmers,
sunbathing and there is usually a small group
of boogie boarders and surfer on the east end
enjoying the surf. The beach has an eclectic range
of restaurants and small inns.
P
laya Blanca
Located 10 minutes from Zihuatanejo, is a beach
overlooking the open sea. A pristine stretch of beach with
few rustic seafood restaurants, beach houses and small
hotels. It is ideal for running and horseback riding.

MAP
ÍNDEX
P
laya la Ropa (Clothes Beach)
The longest beach in the area, and the most beautiful
beach on Zihuatanejo Bay and the Costa Grande. A wide
selection of fresh seafood restaurants, and water sports
are available along the beach, but you can just lay down
on the beach. Conditions and waves are usually fairly
mild, and there is not a large risk of undertow here, so
it is a great place for a swim. There are also hotels and
residential properties both in the beach and in the hills of
La Ropa area. It is a perfect place to watch the sunset and
moonrise place, which sometimes occur simultaneously,
especially when the moon is full.
P
laya las Gatas (The Cats Beach)
The name “Las Gatas” is a reference to the harmless
nurse sharks that used to swim here. The shallow water
is especially tranquil because of a legendary protective
“breakwater” of sunken boulders just offshore. The small
coral reef just offshore is a nice spot for snorkeling and
diving, and a little dive shop on the beach rents gear.
The waters at Las Gatas are exceptionally clear, without
undertow or big waves.
Admire the wall King Calzontzin had built when he chose
the area as a retreat for the royal family. The beach is also
popular for its casual restaurants specializing in grilled
lobster and other exotic dishes of Guerrero, including
iguana and armadillo. This lovely and secluded beach
is only accessible by “panga. Small pangas or lanchas
(boats) with shade run to Las Gatas from the Zihuatanejo
town pier, a 10-minute trip.

Beaches in Ixtapa
P
laya El Palmar
The waves are usually moderate but can become quite
strong. The beach is in the Ixtapa hotel area and offers
excellent facilities, including gear rental for all kinds of
water sports, and fine eateries. Ixtapa’s main beach, Playa
Palmar, is a lovely white-sand arc on the edge of the Hotel
Zone, with dramatic rock formations silhouetted in the
sea. A broad stretch of pleasantly-soft sand, a walkable
2.3 kilometers (1.5 miles) long. It is known as the “Ixtapa
Hotel Zone” because the majority of the hotels in Ixtapa
are in this zone. The surf can be rough; use caution, and
don’t swim when a red flag is posted. The seascape here is

P
alma Real Golf Course
The 18-hole Palma Real Golf Course was design by Robert
Trent Jones Jr. This par 72- 6,898 yards golf course is in
perfect harmony with the environment. The manicured
rolling fairways run through a jungle and coconut
plantation with natural lakes, lagoons and lush tropical
vegetation along the Pacific coastline. It is also a wild
reserve with a variety of birds and some alligators in the
lakes. Golfers see and hear a variety of exotic birds such
as parrots, macaws, cardinals, and a rare and peculiar
species of eagle called pescador (“fisherman”) because
it feeds exclusively on fish from the lakes. Seen but not
heard are rabbits and “giant” iguanas. Do not attempt to
retrieve balls from the water hazards because crocodiles
live in some of them! They usually repose submerged and
out of sight, however they do stroll around at dawn. This
is a complete golf club, including pro shop, driving range,
locker facilities, club house, five lighted tennis courts,
swimming pool, restaurant and bar.
M
arina Ixtapa Golf Club
The golf course at Marina Ixtapa is an 18-hole course
designed by Robert Von Hagge. It has been rated as
one of Mexico’s top courses by Golf Digest. The course
is par 72, 6793-yard course with, 12 bridges, dunes-style
topography and three kilometers of canals that snake
their way though the landscape, creating a challenge for
even the best of golfers. This spectacular course requires
skill and precision in order to navigate the rolling terrain,
expansive sand traps and the wide saltwater inlets that
come into play on 13 of the 18 holes. Should you hit
your ball into one of the inlets or lagoons, take heed:
these are crocodile habitats. The Golf Club also offers a
pro shop, a Mediterranean-style club house, shower and
locker facilities, bar, restaurant and lounge, tennis courts,
meeting rooms and an on-course beverage cart.
Young children, as well as their parents, can enjoy minigolf at Golfito Ixtapa. The course features 18 holes of 6 to 10
