La Quebrada
La Quebrada Review
Just up the hill from Old Acapulco is the southern peninsula, where you'll find La Quebrada and its legendary cliff divers. The peninsula has remnants of Acapulco's golden era, the early- to mid-20th century. Although past its prime, this mostly residential area has been revitalized through the reopenings of the Caleta Hotel and the aquarium at Playa Caleta. And the inexpensive hotels here are still popular with travelers who want good deals and a slower pace.
