Acapulco Maps and Orientation
(Acapulco, Guerrero, Mexico, MX)



Officially known in Mexico as Acapulco de Juárez, the city of Acapulco lies within the Mexican state of Guerrero, alongside the beautiful Pacific coastline. A prominent seaport city and tourist resort combined, Acapulco is located in southern Mexico and overlooks a particularly scenic bay, the Bahia de Acapulco (also known as the Bahia de Santa Lucia).

At the western end of the bay you will find the Peninsula de las Playas, next to the Old Acapulco district, better known as 'Acapulco Nautico'. Many luxury resorts and beaches are sited in this area, including the Playa Hornos. To the north-west, the Pie de la Cuesta region of Acapulco tends to be more low key when it comes to the city's tourism industry and a good place to visit if you wish to escape the crowds.




Acapulco Maps: Orientation of the City - Acapulco, Mexico, MX
Acapulco is easy to reach by road and is close to Highway 95 (north) and Highway 200 (east and west). Around the city environs, visitors to Acapulco will soon discover that street signs are fairly scarce and many of the buildings are numbered somewhat erratically. However, most locals will be happy to direct you to your destination, if you are able to overcome the language barrier. Alternatively, consider investing in a good map of Acapulco, available from bookstores along La Costera.

Much of central Acapulco is typically Colonial Spanish in style and full of character, with the city's magnificent cathedral gracing the very heart of Acapulco's old central commercial district.
