The ship willnot be in Ixtapa, but in the bay of Zihuatenejo.

 

The tenders need at the most 10 minutes, it is a nice quiet bay.

From Z. you will need a cab to Ixtapa.

Can you tell me what you did or heard that was what people wanted to do? Would love to have good snorkleing but can't seem to find that in the Mexican Riveria boards. Actually can't find much on Ixtapa period

In Z. we didnot snorkel but took a cab (after some negociations) with a local guy. (Roberto). He drove us around for more than 2 hours, showing us Z. and Ixtapa with many stops at nice places. We payed him $ 25.- for this.

 

One of the places he showed us was a small very nice hotel on the easternside of Z., on a beautiful beach on the bay - called Hotel Paraisa Real. This hotel also is a diveresort, also offers snorkeltrips, so maybe you can check their website:http://www.divemexico.com.

We met the wife of the owner, very nice lady and spoke good english.
