About this place

Live Stream | Zihuatanejo Main Pier (Muelle Principal), Zihuatanejo, Guerrero, Mexico. Sheltered within a natural Pacific amphitheater, the historic Zihuatanejo Fishing Pier anchors the picturesque Paseo del Pescador waterfront. In early mornings, traditional artisanal fishing skiffs (pangas) unload glistening catches of sailfish, tuna, and red snapper onto the beach market. Wooden water taxis ferry travelers across the sparkling emerald bay to secluded beaches like Playa Las Gatas. Dine along the beachfront promenade to savor the town's legendary culinary creation: "Tiritas de Pescado"—freshly caught sailfish strips cured in lime juice, sea salt, red onion, and fiery serrano chiles, followed by crispy fried red snapper and chilled coconut water.
