Ixtapa Ixtapa offers 14 unspoiled beaches, golf courses, and fine quality shops. Tennis courts and a yacht marina add to the resort amenities. Launches explore the turtles, fish, and pelicans at El Morro de los Pericos, and an excursion boats tour of Ixtapa Island, which served as the location for the film Robinson Crusoe. Zihuatanejo, an old fishing village, has cobblestone streets with restaurants, shopping, and art galleries. The area's three beaches invite all water sports. In addition, the waters off Zihuatanejo are famed for their abundance of game fish- including sailfish, marlin and rooster fish. Ixtapa borders a wide bay dotted with small rocky islands inhabited solely by sea birds. The beach in town, Playa del Mar, is a two-mile stretch of white sand that gave Ixtapa its Nahuatl Indian name the white place.
