Zihuatanejo
La Ropa Beach
This wonderful beach has been awarded as one of the most romantics in Mexico by the biggest travel platform in the world, TripAdvisor and recently it ranked in the top 10 Best Beaches in Mexico by the same platform. It's perfect for swimming in its calm waters, paddle boarding, hiking from end to end, enjoying the restaurants on the sand, and of course, admiring its glorious pink skied sunsets. It is worth mentioning this beach has a Blue Flag certification thanks to high standards in water, services, environmental education, among others. Like the other beaches of Zihuatanejo, the origin of its name comes from Colonial times when a returning Spanish galleon was shipwrecked in front of the bay. Cargos of fine fabrics like muslin, woven products from Bombay, ribbons, shawls and stockings from China washed ashore.

Other Beaches
La Saladita
This beach is known for surfing, especially for longboarders. With its very long-walled left handers, you can slide for more than 500mts on a good day.
La Madera Beach
It is connected from the main beach through the sea walker and is the perfect activity if you’re looking to go on a nice stroll, while enjoying the fresh ocean breeze and magnificent bay of Zihuatanejo.
Playa Larga
Located within the same bay of Playa Blanca is Playa Larga. This can sometimes cause confusion; although it is a single beach, it is divided into two sections. Together it covers more than 19 km of coastline.
