The Ixtapa beaches are a sight to behold with their awe-inspiring beauty and splendor. The diligent lifeguards keep a watchful eye on beachgoers venturing into the sea, ensuring their safety and security. Despite the strong tide, the beach is still a delightful and enchanting experience. The sunsets are a breathtaking display of colors that paint a vivid and picturesque landscape. However, the only downside is the abundance of hotels that monopolize certain areas with their lounge chairs, taking advantage of government institutions to charge exorbitant prices for table usage.

The entrance to the beach is now open to the public, and there are no longer any unwanted businesses around. As a result, it has become an idyllic spot to soak up the sun and savor the scenery.
