Zihuatanejo is the dream "getaway" talked about in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption". This is an old World Mexican fishing village nestled around a small bay dotted with beautiful protected beaches and no high rises. This Zihuatanejo Home Site and its links to nearby sister vacation destinations of Ixtapa, Troncones and Barra de Potosi is offered to readers as a complete, comprehensive directory travel guide to these resort areas. All of these beach resorts are located on the Pacific Coast of Mexico in the State of Guerrero commonly known as the Costa Grande, or the Mexican Riviera. All are within an easy drive of each other, accessible by car, taxi or bus and are serviced by the same International Airport of Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo.
