Barra Vieja beach is south of the airport. About 40 min. from the main avenue in Acapulco along the beach (Costera). Warm water. Nice sand. Worth a visit.

Playa Pie de la Cuesta

Reviewed By 934donnae - West Virginia, United States

A friend and I spent the day at Tres Marias Restaurant on the ocean side and had a very relaxing time. We sat under a palapa and had a wonderful chat about nothing in particular. The Pina Coladas were fresh and cold. We had fish grilled al la talla and it was very tasty. This was the first time I'd tried it. We had hoped to see some whales out in the ocean, but just birds. We do this at least once every trip. My friend winters in Acapulco, but I manage to come every other year for a coupla weeks.
