Zihuatanejo & Riviera PacÃfica Travel Guide
The Magic of Playa La Ropa
Unlike open ocean surf beaches, Playa La Ropa curves gently within protected Zihuatanejo Bay, creating exceptionally calm, crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, and family ocean fun. Lined with rustling palms and unpretentious beachfront palapas, it remains one of Mexico's most beloved and tranquil beaches.
Pacific Wood-Fired Gastronomy
Zihuatanejo's culinary scene is rooted in its historic fishing port traditions. Daily catches of Pacific red snapper (huachinango), dorado, and yellowfin tuna are grilled over fragrant parota and mesquite coals. At Thompson's Ceniza, ancestral smoke and ember techniques combine with contemporary coastal Mexican creativity.
