How to spend top weekend in Acapulco - ideas on extraordinary attractions and sites

Voyage in a Boat with the Transparent Bottom

You are welcome to order a tour in a motorboat that has the transparent bottom. You will head to an interesting journey in the bay area and reach Isla de La Roqueta in order to attend the ACA-ZOO that has become home to animals from different parts of the planet. During the ride, while looking at the glass bottom of the boat, you will be able to see the spectacular beauty of the underwater world and watch its inhabitants. If you decide to make a voyage on such a ship at night, you will be mesmerized by a romantic atmosphere – numerous lamps and romantic music are perfect for setting a lyrical mood.
In Acapulco there are shops and trading centers for every taste. La Isla Acapulco Shopping Village is one of the most beautiful complexes of the kind. The territory of this large shopping … Open

Waterskiing

When you are in a mood for sunbathing on an Acapulco beach and enjoying the tender sun, consider trying some extreme entertainment in the calm waters of the bay. For example, waterskiing is quite popular in the region. This is a truly amusing sport that doesn’t require any special training as water skis are quite easy to operate. Of course, you will need to learn some basic information and prepare for a ride – you will need to rent a hydro costume, safety vest, gloves, and skis. For that purpose, you will need an instructor and a rental office, which you can easily find on the beach. Waterskiing is perfect for boosting your adrenaline level and feel like the conqueror of coastal waters.

Parachuting above Water

If calm beach recreation is not what you like, you are always welcome to try an unusual and very popular entertainment – a flight above the waters of the Pacific Ocean at a height of 30 meters. This extreme sport has the name, parasailing, and it was invented in Acapulco. You can try it by booking a flight right on the beach or by visiting the Colonial water sports center that is located on La Zocalo Square. Such an extreme sport is not a cheap one and is quite short – a 5-minute long flight will cost you approximately 30-50 euro, but you will definitely like it. Incredible emotions, a burst of adrenaline, and a chance to see breathtaking views of the area – parasailing offers these and more. Copyright www.orangesmile.com
Acapulco became a popular resort in the sixties of the 20th century. This place is traditionally loved by celebrities and Hollywood directors often use the city as an ideal shooting area. … Open

Excursion to the Magic World of Cacahuamilpa Caverns

If you are fond of adventures and unusual pastime, don’t forget to visit the unique Grutas de Cacahuamilpa National Park in Guerrero. Together with a guide, you will explore a complicated system of caverns, the age of which is approximately 2 million years. The system of caves consists of nearly 100 salons with passages, ladders, and bridges. You will step into a wondrous world that looks more like a fairytale full of stalactites and stalagmites that have unusual shapes because they grow and merge, looking like lizards, flowers, roosters, gnomes, and people.
All these “sculptures” have an unusual illumination with different colors, which makes them look simply fabulous. One can endlessly admire their look and think what animal or thing these stalactites remind of. One of the crossings in the grotto is famous for its sculpture that has an informal name, “a bottle of champagne”. In Cacahuamilpa, you will also be able to see a famous exotic landmark – a true hall with armchairs and a scene that is often used as a venue to host concerts.
Acapulco literally created for outdoor activities. With children here, you can walk around beautiful parks, relax on the coast, and explore unique sights that will be especially interesting … Open
In the caverns of the national park, you will have an opportunity to not only walk and enjoy the look of magnificent “sculptures” but also try mountain climbing – there are as many as 45 routes specially developed for that purpose. Other recreation activities include rafting in an underground river, bungee jumping, swimming in the pool, admiring plants in an unusual botanic garden, and camping on the river bank.

La Quebrada Jumping

If you want to see something really impressive and breathtaking, consider visiting La Quebrada, a gorgeous tall cliff that is very popular with tourists. Brave people, who know how to dive, jump off the cliff. They can hurt themselves by landing on stones that are covered by waves only 6 meters deep for several seconds. In order not to die, divers need to jump at the right time and land in water. Every jumper prays in a small chapel located near the cliff.
Acapulco is full of amazing gastronomic facilities for vegetarians, for fans of exotic cuisine, and, of course, for those who enjoy delicious and simple dishes. 100% Natural restaurant … Open
A young male named Roberto was the first one who made a jump off the cliff in 1938. All witnesses started throwing coins to the brave guy. This gave birth to an unusual tradition – on certain days everyone can see how divers jump off the La Quebrada cliff. Of course, if you are very brave, you can try to jump yourself.
