Acapulco, One of Mexico’s Top Travel Destinations

from: The Travel Writers of Travel Mountain





Today's Acapulco

Acapulco is probably Mexico's oldest established resort town but, thanks to a recent renaissance, this remarkable town has maintained its status as one of Mexico's top travel destinations and the place to be to enjoy a magnificent Mexico vacation.

It's easy to see why Acapulco attracts travelers of all ages. During its endless sunny days, this Pacific coast town offers beaches that are second-to-none. Visitors can enjoy amazing water adventures or lie in the warmth of the sun and soak up the rays in this city that boasts sunshine nearly every day of the year, with average temperatures in the 80s. Delightful!

Renovations have made the beaches even more accommodating. Old hotels and resorts have been updated and improved and the waters around Acapulco have become pollution-free, thanks to the city government's commitment to maintaining a balance of nature.

With this commitment, the city has invested over $1 billion in public and private infrastructure improvements to counteract any damage that may have occurred to the environment. Not only has the water been improved, but beaches are now cleaner and the fragile eco-system is a top priority.

For visitors to Acapulco, Mexico, this is great news. The fears of contracting intestinal illnesses from poor drinking water have been greatly reduced and guests are more eager to consider Acapulco as a vacation destination for the entire family, thanks to this new facelift.

Acapulco Vacation Ideas

There are plenty of reasons to visit this beautiful port city, but many choose a trip to this top travel destination so that they may enjoy the wide variety of incredible watersports available to guests of all ages.

SCUBA divers who visit this Mexican Riviera town won't be disappointed. They'll find sunken ships, walls, caves, sea mountains, and small coral formations. Viewing the native marine life is fun and fascinating!

For those who prefer not to strap on a tank and dive into the waters of the ocean, snorkeling is an enjoyable alternative and still affords a great look at Mexico's sea creatures.

Boating vacations are also popular in Acapulco, Mexico. Rent a boat or take a chartered trip and enjoy the waters of Acapulco Bay, one of the world's foremost natural harbors. Get up close and personal with the large cruise ships and other boats that dock there. Combine your trip with some deep-sea fishing for a great Acapulco adventure.

The water, of course, isn't the only incredible feature of this picturesque top travel destination. There's plenty to do and see on land, too. Golf fanatics will find lots of places to practice their stroke and tennis aficionados can work on their serve or backhand while on their Acapulco, Mexico vacation.

Don't forget the kids! Adults aren't the only ones who will love Acapulco. This kid-friendly destination loves children and resorts do everything possible to make them feel at home, from offering special kid's clubs to serving cookies and milk before bedtime.

Children will enjoy the sandy white beaches as well as Acapulco's other interesting attractions including a large number of lush green parks, old forts, an aquarium, water parks, amusement areas, and even a roller skating rink. There'll be no grumpy faces here!

History buffs will want to sign up for a guided history tour of the city, which includes stops at landmarks such as Fort San Diego, the Chapel of Peace, and the old Flamingo Hotel, frequented long ago by the biggest names in Hollywood.

Restaurants and Nightlife

Hungry vacationers will never be disappointed at this top travel destination. The restaurants in Acapulco are varied and impressive, offering a wide range of international cuisine. Many are quite affordably-priced and family-friendly while others offer the finest five-star gourmet food at upscale prices.
