When I have questions about or want to communicate with people knowledgeable about Zihuatanejo or Ixtapa, this is a website I visit: . If I were you I'd probably cross post your questions there.

Sorry, the forum software isn't accepting the Zihua Rob's Website when I use the advanced editor function, so I'll try it one more time, and if it doesn't appear just search for "Zihua Rob's" on your computer's search function"

Barra is a great day trip as are Troncones & Petetlan,
If you e-mail me happy to answer any & all questions. I spend about 3 months plus in Zihuatanejo each Winter.

I went to Zihuatanejo once on the low cost looooooong bus ride that is not for fancy tourists riding along the uninhabited Guerrero sierra, it's a lovely quiet small city, very clean, modern, I loved it. The bus that takes you there is just 7 km from my job but doesn't collide well with my job schedule. Perhaps the fact that it's a grueling 6 hour ride with a 30 minute stop in roasting hot Cd Altamirano is also a bit of a turnoff. Man that city is daaaaamn hot.

If you visit Zihua they have good early morning surfing and they have cheap ferry boat rides to Playa Las Gatas which sadly is a small beach with a ton of rocks everywhere but has great palapas with top of the line shrimp cerviche & Beer. There is a more expensive ferry boat ride to Isla Ixtapa which I couldn't afford to visit but some people say is a bit of a tourist trap but I can't make any comments. The main beach at Zihua was okay to me, the nice & cold beers made the beach even better.

Nor sure what beach Sailor considers Main but there are 4 including La Ropa, Madera, Las Gatos & Municipal all excellent for swimming Except Municipal.
PS Las Gatos reef is coral not rock. Water shoes a must when walking the far end. Ferry to Ixtapa Isle is the same (40 pesos) as to Las Gatos.
