La Ropa is probably the most beautiful beach around Zihuatanejo, and feature a great variety of beach activities. La Ropa got its name from a shipwreck of a Spanish galleon arriving form the Philippines that washed up large quantities of clothing on the beach.
Playa Las Gatas:
Playa Las Gatas boasts a sheltered beach with some coral that makes it good for snorkeling - the beach is effectively a large rock pool. Legend has it that the Tarascan chief Calzontzin (who ruled up to Michoacan), built a stone barrier here to prevent sea creatures entering. The beach was never home to cats (gatas), but the harmless whiskered sharks that populated the area since ancient times. Boats leave Zihuatanejo Pier frequently to Las Gatas.
