Ixtapa

Once a 4500-acre coconut plantation, the modern, planned resort area of Ixtapa has year-round ocean breezes and the verdant slopes of the Sierra Madre mountains as a backdrop to its coves, inlets, isles and beaches. A haven for golfers - with two championship PGA courses - and sportfishing for marlin, sailfish and yellowfin tuna, the "Place of White Sand" also is known for its all-night, high tech discos.
