Acapulco tourism officials have reiterated that the destination is operating normally and safe for visitors in wake of an overhaul of the city’s police and security organizations.
The State of Guerrero recently implemented new leadership and supervision as well as best practices for the recruitment, training, and operations of police and security forces with the help of federal entities in an effort to guarantee safety conditions for visitors and residents.
The proactive measures were completed before the inauguration of a new municipal administration on October 1.
The destination can now shift its focus toward wowing tourists, who will have many reasons to visit this fall and in the months to come.
Acapulco just recently hosted the Mexican Petroleum Congress, one of the largest conventions in the country with more than 15,000 participants and expects to welcome at least 29 cruise ships during the upcoming cruise season.
The destination saw an 11 percent rise in visitors this past summer, mirroring Mexico’s growth overall.
