Charming Zihuatanejo, tempered by sea breezes, the charming fishing village offers striking contrast to the neighboring modern village of Ixtapa. This small village is nestled between the bay of Zihuatanejo and the Sierra foothills in the east. Encounter the authentic culture of old Mexico at Zihuatanejo's town beach, Playa Municipal, where local fishermen's colorful boats scatter the beach and open-air seafood restaurants line the waterfront.

A small off-shore coral reef provides snorkeling and diving excitement, while small game and deep sea fishing are also available. For fun off the beach, visitors can learn about regional history at Museo Arqueologia de la Costa Grande or shop the artisan's market on Calle 5 de Mayo.

Zihuatanejo - or in short 'Zihua', has seveal beautiful beaches visitors can explore, each with a unique feature that makes it special.
