Playa la Condesa

Playa la Condesa is in the center of the Golden Zone. Popular La Condesa Beach is crowded with attractive young singles flaunting daring swimwear—although you could say this about most Acapulco beaches—and is a place to watch parasailers do their adrenaline-fueled thing. The waves can get fairly big, which makes boogie boarding popular. The water gets deep quickly, however, so use caution when swimming. Lounge chairs and umbrellas can be rented. Vendors hawking trinkets also roam this beach. There are numerous restaurants and bars along nearby Costera Miguel Alemán.
