Map INDIex Acapulco

Blessed by warm waters and sunshine 365 days a year, gorgeous beaches, a scenery of unrivaled beauty, and hospitable, friendly people, Acapulco offers a casual, relaxed atmosphere. It has one of the most stunning bay views offered by any coastal resort. In Traditional Acapulco, you can stroll along the Malecón and the Zócalo. Visit the cathedral, gazebo, bookstands, street vendors and sidewalk cafés surrounded by barnyard trees. This area is for those who are in search of nostalgia and an authentic encounter with the classic beach destination that was booming in the golden age of Mexican cinema and Hollywood. In contrast, Zona Dorada features a multitude of hotels, exotic nightclubs, glitzy restaurants, art galleries, jewelry stores, boutiques, shopping malls and traditional markets with all sorts of handicrafts. The newer Acapulco Diamante area situated from Puerto Marques Bay to Revolcadero Beach offers first-class resorts, residential developments, modern shopping malls, 4 spectacular 18-holes golf courses, and one of kind tourist complex offering relaxation, business, entertainment and wellbeing, all in a single destination with a luxurious hotel, an spa, an avant-garde performance and entertainment venue, and a modern Convention and Exposition Center. The climate is tropical and humid with sun the greater part of the year, the rainy goes from June to October. The average temperature is 33°C and the minimum is 22°C. Today this beach destination is experiencing a renaissance like no other because private investments include opening hotels, spas, restaurants, malls and new attractions, improving infrastructure and tourism services. There is also a new public transit system known as Acabus. It is efficient, safe, comfortable and fast and connects the resort’s many tourism attractions and facilities. The main central axis is a 16-km (10 miles) long route with 18 stops along the way and transport almost 130 thousand passengers daily.
