Acapulco has been the playground for the rich and famous since 1946. It has the world’s best year round climate with the temperature differential being only 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit from summer to winter. Acapulco has mountains that meet the sea, warm ocean waters, restaurants with fabulous views, and of course the famous Acapulco Cliff Divers. Explore the history of Acapulco by visiting the Fuerte de San Diego, a landmark Spanish fort built in 1616. It is the most relevant historic monument in Acapulco and was the most important Spanish fortress along the Pacific coast. Located on a hill in the heart of downtown Acapulco, the fort is an integral part of the landscape that stands out because of its singular geometric design in the shape of a five point star.
