Isla Ixtapa, Pacific island in Guerrero, Mexico.

The island features three distinct beaches: Playa Varadero, Playa Cuachalalate, and Playa Coral, each offering white sand shorelines and clear waters.

Archaeological findings in the Guerrero region indicate that indigenous communities utilized the island for fishing and gathering resources over many centuries.

Mexican seafood restaurants on the island prepare traditional dishes using fresh local ingredients, maintaining regional cooking methods passed through generations.

Regular boat services transport visitors from Playa Linda on the mainland throughout the day, with increased frequency during peak tourist seasons.

The coral reef system surrounding the island creates natural pools where travelers can observe numerous species of tropical fish in their habitat.
