Zihuatanejo in Mexico is the fourth largest city in the province of Guerrero. It is situated on the coast of the Pacific ocean about 145 miles (240 km) northwest of Acapulco and only 5 km from the modern tourist city of Ixtapa.
Zihuatanejo sits in the state of Guerrero in the Mexican Riveria in the southwestern corner of Mexico. This city has only been going by this name for a couple of centuries (and previously went by Cihuatlán, then Ciguatanejo).
Once a matriarchal society filled with gold and gems, Zihuatanejo now has a reputation as a premier fishing spot, as it is situated in a bay guarded by a barrier—it’s disputed whether this protection is man-made or natural.
Zihuatanejo can easily be reached by highway, bus and air and has its own international airport. Flights with major airlines such as US Airways, American Airlines, Air Canada and Northwest Airlines are available from many cities in the United States and Canada. There are also flights available from Mexico City and several provincial cities.
