Acapulco Spring Break- A Brief Overview

Located on Mexico's Pacific Coast, Acapulco has long been a favored destination for those looking to escape it all.  It is only recently that Acapulco has become a noted Spring Break destination.

The Diamond Zone

Spring Break Acapulco activities center around two main areas. Beginning near the airport is the Playa Revolcadero/Diamante area, also known as the Diamond Zone or the "new" Acapulco. This long flat stretch of open ocean beach (backed by an enormous, but tranquil, tropical lagoon) is now home to the Mayan Palace, the Tres Vidas Golf Course, and several luxury apartment/condo projects.  You likely will not stay here, but there is a great beach to check out here.

The Golden Zone

This is the spectacular Acapulco Bay you know from the pictures and travel posters.

It is a mountain-framed natural harbor that rivals Rio de Janeiro and Hong Kong for beauty. The main road descends from the steep cliffs of the bay’s southern end, becoming the coastal main road named Avenida Miguel Alemán, also known as the Costera.

This is the heart of Spring Break Acapulco- with its resort strip and nearly all of Acapulco’s highrise hotels, non-stop nightlife, dining, and shopping. The Costera continues north along the bay toward Old Acapulco and the aging but partially renovated downtown area.

Acapulco is perhaps the largest, loudest and most boisterous resort town in Mexico. Its nightclubs and discos can rival those of any party city in the world.  Just take a look at this photo from the amazing disco El Alebrije! 

Acapulco Spring Break has the capacity to really draw in the crowds.   In fact, an Acapulco Spring Break offers over 300 hotels (with more than 16,000 rooms) and boasts some of the world’s most exclusive resorts, along with many affordable beachfront choices.  Whatever your price range, you can make Acapulco Spring Break happen.
