Playa las Gatas beach

Playa las Gatas is a small paradise beach in the south of Zihuatanejo bay, Mexico. It can be relatively overcrowded during the weekends. However, you can always walk to the left - to the spot without sunbeds rental. It's not so crowded there, and much more beautiful. The beach is located in a small bay inside the larger bay, so there are never strong waves. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
