LaPorta from Ixtapa

It’s about a 25 minute walk from the main boulevard in Ixtapa to the walkway just past the CFE on Viverios. Then take the new walkway beside the CFE into La Puerta only a 10 minute walk to Bodega from there.

There are many little tiendas selling fruits and veggies as well as butchers and fresh fish vendors.

There are also pharmacies, Bodega , Merza and Neto

Lots of great restaurants and cafes, our favourite is Concha y Cafe a very small restaurant/bakery that Jorge and his wife Maggie run. They have the best sour dough bread, coffees, cinnamon rolls , breakfasts and great dinners as well as sour dough pizza on the weekends.

We love to take the Combi to the mercado in Zihua from Ixtapa to shop but La Puerta is extremely handy and has everything you need.

There is also Combi that runs along the main boulevard in Ixtapa that goes to La Puerta and you can also catch one in Zihua to La Puerta as well.

Great community, very friendly people there just as in Zihua

We ride our bikes there almost every day from Ixtapa.

Give it a try you willl love it and make sure to stop at Concha y Cafe for some sourdough bread. You can find them on Facebook.

Tell Jorge and Maggie, Grumpy says Hola!!
