Zihuatanejo, México

Zihuatanejo México

Zihuatanejo has grown from a modest fishing village into a laid-back, provincial destination favored by backpackers and bohemian travelers who enjoy small, winding streets filled with galleries and craft shops. In Zihuatanejo, finding a good spot on the beach usually means picking a restaurant and settling at a free table under an umbrella, while children play and you admire the shifting colors of the ocean. That feeling of tranquility—and that view—may be interrupted only by the striking sight of a cruise ship leaving the port or by parasailers gliding through the air, enjoying a lofty view of the bay. Strong swimmers won’t hesitate to join tours to Los Morros de Potosí, huge white rock formations that serve as refuges for pelicans and seagulls. Beneath the surface, divers explore a network of caves, arches, walls, and tunnels that make for a truly unique underwater experience.
