Playa Linda

A long stretch of greyish sand, Playa Linda is popular with locals, though the water towards the north end can be murky thanks to the nearby rivers and mangroves. It has some decent surf and a gaggle of enramadas (beach restaurants) at the south end. Banana-boat rides are offered. Local buses from central Ixtapa (M$15) can drop you here.
