Situated in one of the world's best, and most beautiful, natural harbors, Acapulco's exotic scenery is the backdrop to an exciting arena of both tame and wild watersports, incredible dining and shopping, championship golf, and legendary nightlife. If you're inclined to share the sun, surf, and scenery with people from all over the world, this is your spot. The spectacular beauty of Acapulco's bay has been appreciated for centuries. And the more than 23 beaches are great for sunbathing, body surfing, and parasailing. Plus, you can watch the famous La Quebrada cliff divers as they plunge 136 feet to the sea. Enjoy shopping for resort wear and Mexican handicrafts. At night, music mixes with the gentle surf, and soft-blowing breezes, and warm conversation, signifying another timeless evening before another lively day.

Dining and Entertainment

Acapulco offers a wide variety of great reataurants. Many of the finest are in the better hotels and are worth the splurge.

Then, after dinner, head straight out for a sensational night on the town under the sparkling city lights.
