Acapulco's sheltered harbor was once the center of New
Spain's trade with the Philippines and in turn much of Asia.
Rich cargoes went both ways and were a lure to pirates. Fort
San Diego is now a museum housing pre-Hispanic artifacts
and relics of the two hundred years that Spanish galleons sailed
from Acapulco to the Philippines and back.
