Puerto Marques
Puerto Marqués
Located on the Pacific coast, this area consists of a bay encompassing two beaches: Puerto Marqués and Majahua. Travelers visit this location to access quieter shorelines and a more relaxed environment compared to the busier urban center of Acapulco.
Getting There
The bay is situated approximately 10 km south of the Acapulco city center. Visitors can reach the area via taxi or local transport, with the journey typically taking 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions.
Duration of Visit
Depending on the activity, visitors generally spend a half-day or a full day here. This allows enough time for swimming, lounging on the sand, or walking between the two beaches.
When to Visit
The area is best visited during the dry season to avoid heavy rains. Like most coastal destinations in the region, it becomes more crowded during national holidays and peak vacation periods. Arriving in the morning is recommended to secure a spot on the beach.
