Sun and games at Casa de Piedra BeachPlaya Ventura
South of legendary party town Acapulco you’ll find Playa Ventura, a fishing village with a perfect golden arc of sand. The area sees just a smattering of visitors, including the turtles who lay their eggs on some protected parts of Casa de Piedra Beach, so it’s perfect if you’re after sunshiny days and quiet nights. Catch a wave off the shore, watch the pelicans diving for fish or stare out to sea looking for dolphins, Playa Ventura is one of those beaches you need to get lost to find.
As the sun sets locals cook fresh seafood on barbecues and cold Corona's are sold at local prices.
Once the sun is down make your way to one of the few bars in the main square. Here you'll find yourself mixing with the locals hopefully with a local band looking after the soundtrack.
