While resorts continue to spring up, "Zihua" remains determined to maintain its small-town flavor. The brick-paved "fisherman's walk," a nod to the region's seafaring roots, stretches along the town center. Because the nightlife is mostly informal, Zihua is particularly appealing to couples and those seeking an escape from coastal party towns.

Coral formation just offshore now being granted national protection as a natural reserve.
a beautiful beach, food, and snorkel spot, but be warned about the boat trip cost. against my wifes better judgement call, i paid what i thought was fair, 300 pesos for two round trip. we enjoyed the trip so much, we promised our server and the nearby masseuse that we would return the next day ...when we did, i found another window offering trips for 80 pesos...live and learn, but the beach is great, once you land at the dock (a ten minute mellow cruise across the bay) you are greeted by a sort of gauntlet of hosts ranging from food, drink, and snorkel gear, to tourist guides , masseurs, and trinket sales persons. we tried a couple spots on for size, and settled at the end of the beach. i cant remember the name, but it is the place with (rocko) the old pit bull. hes a sweetie with back legs that dont work, if that helps you find it. its also the last one in the line. great service, great drinks, and even some great advice on which way to go to snorkel and get the most out of snorkel time, while my wife got her massage.

Many hotels and restaurants are located along this beach.
Great beach and lots of great restaurants We stayed at Embarc right on the beach and if you are visiting Zihuatanejo this is the nicest part to go

With almost two miles of sand, this beach is ideal for long walks, jogging or soaking up rays.
like vast, it stretches for miles and miles and can you say uncrowded, oh my goodness, not a soul in sight and even if there were, there's more than enough room for all so picturesque, the sparkly ocean at its side, with mountains and hills its backdrop remarkably unspoilt in its pristine coastal location its golden fine sands make it perfect for walking and running (just don't cross it in the afternoon!) with great caution advised - the crashing waves at its shoreline demand respect make it spectacular and magnificent all the same the perfect place to lose yourself and just breathe grateful to experience such wondrous beauty!!

This beach is an excellent spot to view various birds and wildlife.
We stayed at the villas playa blanca on the beach. Beautiful beach running for miles great for walking but the surf is very rough not good for swimming but we had a lovely infinity pool overlooking the beach.Our villa was great very spacious and comfortable. Four excellent restaurants within walking distance on the beach.

Explore! Beautiful scenery and people. We’ve yet to have a bad meal. The sunsets are gorgeous! If you stay at the Thompson or further left you’ll see better sunsets or plan dinner early enough to watch it from many Ana omg restaurants! Beach is clean.

We took a relaxing and interesting private motorboat tour of the lagoon and mangroves of Barra de Potosi, where we observed cormorants, pelicans, egrets, frigates, ahingas. The crocodiles eluded us, however.

"Nurse Shark Beach" is a fun beach to explore and reachable only by boat.
Las Gatas Beach is a little bay just off of Playa La Ropa. You can get there by ferry from downtown Zihuatanejo(50 pesos round trip), take a taxi from La Ropa or use the foot path(Not for the elderly or those with mobility issues as there's quite a few rocks to traverse and don't wear your flip flops). Whereas the surf can get kind of rough on La Ropa, there were barely ripples in the water at Las Gatas. Great for snorkeling(Snorkle equipment can be rented right on the beach for about $5) or just wading in the water. Tons of little beach bars up and down the beach if you need to get out of the sun at all or just want a Margarita as big as your head.(Make sure to have cash. Not sure if any of them take cards)

We got there walking the trail which was very nice, then the beach was away from everything and calm. Lovely place.

Small stretch of beach located in the middle of downtown Zihuatanejo.
We take a cab to town and shop then eat lunch at Daniels on the beach. We also kayak there every year from Playa Ropa. Beautiful beach and good shopping.
