The tour includes two key sites for understanding the historical evolution of the coastal region and its relationship with the marine environment and wildlife.

The Acapulco Historical Museum at Fort San Diego is one of the most important historical monuments on the Mexican Pacific coast. During the colonial period, the fortification protected the port of Acapulco, and today it houses a museum that explores regional archaeology and history, trans-Pacific navigation, and trade between the Americas and Asia via the Nao de China or Manila Galleon.

The second part of the tour focuses on Majahua Beach and the Puerto Marqués archaeological site, an area of great significance for Mexican archaeology. Research conducted by the INAH indicates continuous human occupation from approximately 3000 B.C. through the Classical period; furthermore, petroglyphs and evidence associated with some of the oldest coastal settlements recorded in Guerrero have been documented.

This event will provide insight into the historical relationship between the sea, the natural landscape, and human settlements, highlighting how Acapulco’s ancient societies developed ways of life closely tied to the maritime environment.

It may be of interest to students, researchers, families, and visitors interested in archaeology, regional history, and cultural heritage.
