A January 2003 trip to Acapulco by hectorin81
Quote: Beach, sun, and a lot of fun can be found in Acapulco.
Overview
In ACAPULCO there is a lot of night life for young people or for all the family. In the next day take a trip to PUERTO MARQUES only 20 munuts from ACAPULCO this is another nice beach where you can find the best seafood for very nice prices, and you can see the SUNSET there, which is so nice.
If you can, take a boat trip around Acapulco as it should only cost you pesos--like Dollars--and you can drink all you can.
If you take a TAXI CAB, they do not acept more then pesos. Usually a fare is like 50 pesos or 70 pesos at the most--like 5 to 7 dollars. Do not pay more then 10 DOLLARS, only if you are going to take a CAB to PUERTO MARQUES should the fare be around 10 to 15 dollars or you can make an arrangement with the taxi driver and pay a round trip.

Attraction | "The Death Defying Divers of La Quebrada"
This is one of the famous natural-human shows in Acapulco--it's amazing how these boys dive from a rocky cliff. There is a show in the morning, one at sunset, and the best one (in my opinion) is the night show because at night they dive with torches and fire. If you want to drink a margarita, go in to the Plaza Las Glorias hotel (that is an RCI resort, too). Go in to the restaurant that has a nice view of La Quebrada and you can see the show from the restaurant and see the sunset--it is very romntic.
