Ixtapa Activities

From Ixtapa’s most famous modern sites to its ancient history to the local plantations and small towns, you’ll experience the best of Ixtapa in one tour!

Spend the day fishing on a private, chartered boat in the outlying Pacific waters. Your captain and crew are experts in the surrounding waters and local fish—including marlin, sailfish, mahi mahi, and yellow fin tuna.

Don a cowboy hat and saddle up! An expert Mexican “cowboy” and your new, four-footed friend take you for a ride along the beach and through coconut and fruit plantations.

A short boat ride from Playa Linda to Ixtapa Island delivers you to Coral and Baradero Beaches, which are not only safe but also superior for swimming and snorkeling. Or, try something new—go out in a kayak, take a banana boat ride, or experiment with a wave runner.

Just a short boat ride from downtown Zihuatanejo lays Las Gatas Beach. Take time to relax on the beach in this beautiful paradise and be sure to try snorkeling, swimming, and other water sports in the clear waters.

Enjoy a welcome from a Mariachi band and then taste the real traditions of Mexican cuisine with a buffet dinner. A folkloric ballet troupe—performing songs and dances from the different states of México—entertains the night away.

Set sail for the white sand beaches and coral reef of Manzanillo Beach—the perfect place to sit back or play! Snorkel, swim, collect shells, and simply relax in this beautiful paradise.

Sail around the Bay of Zihuatanejo as the sun sets. Sip on local cocktails and keep your eyes open for the famous “Ola Verde” (green flash) as the sun sinks below the horizon.
