Acapulco Attractions
An exotic destination for all, Acapulco has no shortage of exciting things to see and do when you are visiting Mexico. Even though the beaches are the main highlight, there are plenty of activities for taking in a bit of the local sights as well.
Any trip to Acapulco should include a stop at El Zocalo in the Traditional Zone. This is the main plaza in the area, and is a great spot for local food and architecture. Don't miss the beautiful open-air church that towers above the main plaza.
The Diamante Area is also a traveler's hot spot. This beautiful historic area is where the upper crust head to eat and play. Even if you're on a budget, the beaches here are worth visiting, and the new luxury mansions are definitely worth a gander.
End your day at Playa Pie de la Cuesta, the perfect spot to watch a gorgeous sunset over the ocean. Bring a bottle of wine, your fellow traveling companions, and unwind and reflect on all you've seen today on this beautiful beach.
