Pie de la Cuesta is situated 10km from Acapulco. It is basically a 2km stretch of narrow land with the ocean beach of Playa Pie de la Cuesta on one side and the large and spectacular freshwater lagoon, called Laguna de Cuyoca, on the other. It is a far cry from its neighbour Acapulco and is a perfect destination for those searching for quietness and beauty packaged together. The Lagoon is thrice the size of Bahía de Acapulco and consists of a few islands and a bird sanctuary. But the one thing you can’t possibly miss at Pie de la Cuesta is the magical and spell binding view of the sunset.
