Ixtapa lies in the foothills of the Sierra Madres, surrounded by tropical forest and gorgeous white sand. Much of the action centers around the
classy, modern Ixtapa hotel district where you will find first class shopping, restaurants, nightlife and some of Mexico's most enticing beachfront resorts.
This is a place where first-time visitors tend quickly to become regulars, where new-comers scheme about how to make it back here and stay longer.
Tropical, white sanded beaches are lined with coconut palms where you can water ski and parasail, hang out on a hammock with a book, snorkel with the many-colored fishes and watch spectacular sunsets at the
close of every day.
Championship golf courses are close by, or rent a bike and follow the path to the laid back fishing
village of Zihuatanejo, just about four miles away. Its seaside cafes, intriguing native markets and seaside promenade, coupled with centuries of tradition, make this area a joy to explore.
The sixteen miles of glorious Pacific coast provide ample water sports from surfing to deep-sea
fishing. Ixtapa offers the visitor a stretch of more intense and wild surf along Playa el Palmar, it's main beach. Visitors will find excellent snorkeling spots a short boat trip away at Isla Ixtapa.
With over 25 dive sites from reefs to wrecks, scuba lovers will find plenty of action. Inland you can
find white water rafting, hiking and a zip-line canopy tour, or you may simply want to relax and enjoy a romantic getaway. Whatever your desire, an Ixtapa vacation package delivers luxury,
romance and excitement. |
