This 18th-century Spanish fortress turned museum is occasionally the site for festive gatherings.
Acapulco owns a very rich history and we were very happy to discover it by visiting that fortress and its museum. About 10 rooms are dedicated to different ages and aspects of what was the most important port in New Spain. We went 3 times as we wanted to read and learn the most possible!

A peaceful, popular beach.
Barra Vieja beach is south of the airport. About 40 min. from the main avenue in Acapulco along the beach (Costera). Warm water. Nice sand. Worth a visit.

Neighborhood overlooking the "C" shaped bay in original Acapulco.
We stayed at the Princess Imperial Hotel. Its a quiet & safe area. There is a golf course and pro tennis stadium in the neighbouring properties. Great sunsets, and views from the towers of the Princess Mundo Imerial Hotel.

Located on a hillside 1,200 feet above sea level, this contemporary chapel is recognized by its 130-foot cross.
Interesting history and great view in multiple directions. Worth stopping at if passing by. Donation appreciated.

Located east of the city, this fresh-water lagoon is great for viewing wildlife and engaging in water sports.
We went with Roberto Alercon. He is simply amazing. He set us up with Captain Felix. We released sea turtles then had margaritas! We then had a tour of the lagoon with Captain Felix. It is a lovely, peaceful place. There were many birds to see and the water lilies were lovely. We jumped in the water and picked a water lily bouquet! We were also given water lily necklaces to wear. Captain Felix’s assistant collected the famous mud and we were given mud facials. The mud is said to take 10-15 years off. Sadly, I cannot verify this, but it was still really fun! We then ate lunch at a lovely restaurant on the beach that had wonderful fresh seafood. It was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this tour with Roberto Alercon!!!

These cliffs are home to the daredevil cliff divers.
The name means "the broken" since the cliffs were dynamited to quarry rock for a hotel (according to a sign at the scene). The cliff views are amazing and the cliff divers death defying. There was a carnival atmosphere each night as the locals congregated to view the divers. Every visitor to Acapulco should include this site at night.

On a warm summer evening, the captain of an 80ft motor yacht approached my First 35 Beneteau sailing yacht and asked if we wanted to experience Acapulco cliff divers at night...on the sea. I thought he meant for his vessel but I was wrong. He offered to join us and my crew to see the divers from my boat. It was magical. And at the end of the show, one of the divers swam out to our humble yacht and displayed to athletic physique of a cliff diver aboard. My crew was in awe and thankfully shared many dollars with the young athlete. I can attest that the view from the water was more than I expected and hope to return to see it from the shore. Bravo!

A friend and I spent the day at Tres Marias Restaurant on the ocean side and had a very relaxing time. We sat under a palapa and had a wonderful chat about nothing in particular. The Pina Coladas were fresh and cold. We had fish grilled al la talla and it was very tasty. This was the first time I'd tried it. We had hoped to see some whales out in the ocean, but just birds. We do this at least once every trip. My friend winters in Acapulco, but I manage to come every other year for a coupla weeks.

Costera is the heart of tourist area of Acapulcoo. It follows the shoreline and its lined with hotels, restaurants, shops, service outfits, etc. One can walk on it and go back along the endless beach. Taxis, buses and "collectivos" ply along it every few seconds.

Take a glass-bottom boat and explore this small island, which has nice beaches, restaurants and a zoo.
I live fairly close to Isla Roqueta and love being able to go over and explore. At 100 pesos (roughly $5 USD) roundtrip you really can't beat it. There's a nice beach, a restaurant that serves delicious food and drinks, and trails. There are also several secluded beaches you can find on the island. I'd definitely recommend going over to see it if you're in Acapulco.
