As Acapulco has more than 10 named beaches I would suggest you try to see them all .However i would recommend Caleta for families and adults alike

We love watching the people and having lunch there on one of the two little beaches. I have been there when it was so crowded you could hardly walk and other times when we are almost alone. The little restaurant there has good food and inside as well as beach dining. Spend the day. You won't be sorry.

Caleta is my favorite spot in Acapulco as there I get the real Mexican feeling, the people are genuine and the vendors don't bug you.

These beaches can get busy on the weekend but mid week are exteremly pleasant, calm and quiet with lots of seafood restaurants to chose from. The water is very calm and would be ideal for small children.

we dove from Caleta beach.. the beach is wonderfully soft sand, the people who work the restaurants there are friendly, helpful and had a great sense of humor. The beach is clean, the water clear and not polluted. Great place :)

My friends too a swim in the still (pool like) water, I just took my shoes off and strolled on the beach, warn sand has such a nice feeling. Families with kids and even the pet dog taking a swim such a nice family place.

We tend to go here on busy days, when it is busy. If you want to be shoulder to shoulder with locals, come here on new years day. But bring your own food and beer. The water is very calm and good for anyone to swim. Expect an authentic mexico experience.
