Acapulco Vacation Packages, Acapulco Resorts
Acapulco, the Pacific Coast Beach Resort on Mexico's West Coast was a fortified city in the 1700s and
a wealthy shipping port.  In the 1950s the town became a
retreat  to John Wayne, Johnny Wiesmuller
(
Tarzan), and other Hollywood stars who came to escape to the quiet Vacation resort of  Los Flamingo
Hotel. (pictured above right)
Now Acapulco's high rise hotels and Acapulco all inclusive lodging packages offer a great Mexico family
vacation place.
The Acapulco Vacation packages also attract the Spring breakers who come for the all night party scene
during February and March.

and Carnival cruises that sail
the coast out of California.

terminal you will find the Museum of
Fort San Diego open for tours and
great views of the harbor.  
Acapulco offers the vacation visitor
many attractions, including sport fishing
for Marlin, Sailfish, and Dorado from
the sport fishing fleet located just north
of the cruise ship terminal.
