Skagway Excursions

Unlike other Mexican beach resort destinations, Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo comprises two entirely different places with distinct lifestyles. In Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo you will get TWO DESTINATIONS for the price of one.  Perfect for families, singles, couples, honeymooners, old timers and especially for YOU, once you discover Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, you will return and return.

Zihuatanejo is a small town that still conveys the look, feel and friendly atmosphere of an old fishing village with a true Mexican flavor.  The downtown streets are still paved with cobblestones, and the buildings have that tropical-coastal look.  There are many cozy restaurants, boutiques, jewelry stores, bars, hotels, markets and much more.  Water sports and fishing are popular here, and the fantastic beaches are safe and fun for everyone.

Ixtapa is a modern, world-class resort area. Its bay is wide and it is one of the best places to admire a spectacular sunset. Ixtapa has several colonial and modern style malls interconnected by plazas and gardens where you'll find many restaurants, bars, boutiques, shops, grocery markets, drug stores, etc.  Across the street from the malls are the luxurious beachfront hotels with their restaurants and bars. El Palmar, the beach at Ixtapa features all water sports, including surfing.  Nearby Playa Linda and Playa Quieta offer fun in the sun as well.
