Imagine the Pacific before you... on the beach, sand crabs scuttle about. You pause to look at a natural rock tub at the tide's edge, uncovered during the shifting of sand the night before. You immerse yourself in the refreshing sea. While body surfing on the clear warm Pacific, you see a pod of dolphins gliding silently through the waves.

Just fifteen miles from Ixtapa and the yachters' paradise of Zihuatanejo, the quiet village of Troncones feels like a different era. The village is home to about 250 people who farm and fish, as well as a sprinkling of foreigners who have come to Troncones and found the tranquil beauty impossible to leave. Transportation from the airport takes about forty-five minutes.
