About Acapulco

Acapulco is a Pacific resort city on a deep, curved bay in Guerrero, known for cliff divers, beaches, a Spanish fort and mid-century glamour.

Acapulco wraps around one of the finest natural harbours on Mexico's Pacific coast, a deep bay ringed by green mountains. For more than two centuries it was the Pacific end of the Manila galleon trade, bringing silks and spices from Asia, and Fort San Diego, a pentagonal Spanish fortress above the bay, now holds a history museum. In the 1950s and 1960s it became a glamorous resort, and the zócalo, cathedral and old streets keep a mid-century feel.

Top-ranked sights in Acapulco: La Quebrada Cliff Divers, Diego Rivera Mural (Exekatlkalli), Zocalo.
