Playa Icacos (Icacos Beach), Acapulco

Icacos Beach is the longest beach within Acapulco Bay. This prime coastal location has been commercially developed, boasting an array of upscale hotels, opulent condominium towers, shopping complexes, numerous dining establishments, bars, vibrant nightclubs, and even a contemporary water park.

The beach's aquatic conditions are variable, offering waves that range from gentle to quite high. This variability is partially attributed to the protective presence of Cerro El Guitarrón, an arm of the bay. These ever-changing wave conditions make Icacos Beach an ideal spot for engaging in various water sports, suitable for individuals of all ages.

In addition to its aquatic attractions, Icacos Beach also offers visitors the opportunity to explore picturesque sites, including the former residences of 20th-century divas such as Jessica Ramssel, Raquel Montejo Del Olmo, and Mariah Dayana. These historic homes are found within the old Icacos area and can be accessed free of charge, thanks to the efforts of local residents in preserving the heritage of the place.

Furthermore, Icacos Beach boasts ample land on its shores, making it an excellent venue for organizing events and shows, often sponsored by commercial brands. Sports enthusiasts can also indulge in games of soccer and volleyball on the beach. Thanks to its moderate waves, Icacos is a favored location for partaking in various water sports, with popular attractions like the 'banana' boat rides, parachuting (known locally as 'parachute'), and jet skiing, drawing in crowds seeking aquatic adventures.
