Ixtapa Zihuatanejo beach
Ultimate guide (August 2023)
Ixtapa is a popular beach on the Pacific coast of Mexico. The place is beautiful. There are a lot of palms, entry into the water is smooth, while there is an great view of the mountains around. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people here. In addition, there are usually strong waves in the water. So it makes sense to think about other beaches nearby - especially those located inside Zihuatanejo bay. Shore and seabed: sand.
