Ixtapa vacations may offer the best combination of a sporty and relaxing vacation of all of Mexico's cities. Its location on the lower part of Mexico on the Pacific Ocean gives it Caribbean weather, but with the better water and sea life of the Pacific. This place is designed for the vacationer who likes action and knows how to relax.
Known for Beaches, Fishing and Top Quality Resorts
Ixtapa is known for its sport fishing. No, I don't mean sitting onshore and casting a line. I am talking about huge fish such as the blue marlin, roosterfish and sailfish. These sport fish, especially the blue marlin, are considered small if measured at less than 160 pounds.
You cannot fish from shore and catch one of these goliaths. You must go out on the expert fleet of fishing boats that charter visitors daily. They supply all your equipment and teach you, but you have to do the work if you get a bite.
When you are not sport fishing, you can enjoy the best snorkeling or scuba diving anywhere on your Ixtapa vacation. From top rated resorts and an old world fishing town atmosphere, to relaxing beaches and top quality service, you cannot beat Ixtapa. It has a combination that 9 out of 10 guests will agree is absolutely heavenly.
