Playa Linda
A long, sandy beach north of Ixtapa, with the pier for trips to Isla Ixtapa and a small crocodile sanctuary where you can see crocodiles up close.
Playa Linda is where boats leave for Isla Ixtapa. The beach is wide and less crowded, and horseback riding is available. Beside the pier, a small crocodile sanctuary has wooden boardwalks where you can see American crocodiles, iguanas and waterbirds in the estuary. Please do not feed the animals. Nearby are craft stalls and seafood restaurants. It is about 15 minutes from Ixtapa by bus or taxi.
