Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo Weather, Climate and Topography
Weather
Conditions Semi-tropical climate year-round with an average of 300 sunny days
a year and temperatures ranging from 73° to 93° F (23° to 33° C).
Climate/Topography
The country covers some 760,000 square miles (one quarter the size the continental
U.S.). Much of it is rugged and mountainous. 60% of the country's landmass is
in what's referred to as the "mesa central" or central plateau. This highland
is bordered to the east and west by mountain ranges (Sierra Madre Oriental and
Sierra Madre Occidental, respectively), and to the south by a row of towering,
widely spaced volcanoes.
