Zihuatenejo - Clearance
See Mexico Formalities page for full details.
The offices of Port Captain and Immigration are behind the concrete fishing dock.
Cruisers warn (2022) that domestic clearance here is lengthy and there are fees to be paid. This is very different from other domestic ports in Mexico where most port captains are efficient, fast and domestic clearance is a free process.

Marina Ixtapa also has a new boatyard with 100-ton travelift, good for quick repairs, but not much land in the yard for long-term storage on the hard. Ask at the Marina Ixtapa office about the boatyard, same owners.
Marina Puerto Mio is no longer a real marina with slips and fuel, just a few docks for local dive excursion pangas that ply the cruise ship, passengers. But yatistas can ask the dive shop for temporary alongside dockage. We got that side tie once overnight but had to move quickly the next morning when the Navy patrol boat was coming in.
