Ixtapa Islands: the best natural getaways in front of the sea
Destinations 21/07/2025
When we think of Ixtapa, golden beaches, a family-friendly atmosphere, and the warmth of its people are the first things that come to mind. But just minutes from the coast lie true natural gems that offer a break from the crowds and an authentic connection with the surroundings: the Islands of Ixtapa.
These small marine paradises are the perfect choice for those seeking a more peaceful experience, far from typical tourist routes. Here, the sea gently meets the coast, making it ideal for swimming, barefoot walks, and simply enjoying life at a slower pace. If your vacation plans include nature, light adventure, and lots of relaxation, the islands of Ixtapa deserve a spot on your itinerary.
One of the best-known beaches on Isla Ixtapa, yet still uncrowded, is Playa Varadero. Its gentle waves and crystal-clear waters invite you to take your time. It's the perfect place for families, couples, or travelers looking for peace and natural shade. Surrounded by tropical vegetation and local restaurants serving fresh seafood, this spot promises hours of total disconnection.
Located on the opposite side of the island, this beach is less visited and ideal for those who enjoy a quiet stroll along the sand or reading a book by the sea. The vegetation surrounding the coastline gives it an intimate, almost secret feel. It’s the perfect spot for couples or anyone looking for a peaceful moment of reflection.
One of the biggest advantages of staying at Park Royal Beach Ixtapa is how close it is to the main pier where the pangas (local boats) depart for Isla Ixtapa. The ride is short, pleasant, and offers stunning views of the coastline. Plus, the resort has everything you need to unwind after a day of exploration: All-Inclusive plan, pools, direct beach access, and spaces designed for total relaxation.
The global trend of ecotourism has led more travelers to seek destinations offering authentic experiences in touch with nature. The Islands of Ixtapa not only meet that expectation—they exceed it. These are places where time slows down, the sea changes its hue, and tranquility becomes the best souvenir of your vacation.
Book now at Park Royal Beach Ixtapa and get ready to discover the most natural, quiet, and special side of the Mexican Pacific. Because sometimes, the best of the sea… is just one island away.
