Home > Guide > Acapulco > Cities > Acapulco Zona Dorada

Acapulco Zona Dorada, also called the Mexican Sunset Boulevard, extends from the Naval Base all along the beach until the Papagayo Park located at the Acapulco bay’s opposite end. It has been chosen as a location because it is considered the heart of this destination since most day and night activities and attractions take place here. Acapulco’s main avenue, Costera Miguel Aleman, mostly runs through Acapulco Zona Dorada and provides easy access to its popular beaches Condesa, Hornitos and Icacos, flanking the bay’s northern and western shores. At Northwest, Acapulco Zona Dorada is bordered with the area called Traditional Acapulco. At southeast, the Scenic Highway begins and leads to Puerto Marques and to Acapulco Diamond.
