Acapulco is a town on the Pacific coast largely known for its beaches and resorts. The town is set on a large bay surrounded by high-rise resorts and residences, with the Sierra Madre del Sur mountains forming a beautiful backdrop. The area was popularized as a destination by the well heeled in the 50s and 60s, however still remains popular today. Visitors come to enjoy the raucous nightlife, relax in the sun on the gorgeous beaches, and explore the mountains. If you are interested in checking out a unique attraction, twice-daily cliff divers dive into a small cove from 40 meters high at Acapulco's well-known La Quebrada cliff. Map
