- Costa Grande of Guerrero is a sociopolitical region located in the Mexican state of Guerrero, along the Pacific Coast. It makes up 325 km (202 mi) of Guerrero's approximately 500 km (311 mi) coastline, extending from the Michoacán border to the Acapulco area, wedged between the Sierra Madre del Sur and the Pacific Ocean. Acapulco is often considered part of the Costa Grande; however, the government of the state classifies the area around the city as a separate region. The Costa Grande roughly correlates to the Cihuatlán province of the Aztec Empire, which was conquered between 1497 and 1504. Before then, much of the area belonged to a dominion under the control of the Cuitlatecs, but efforts by both the Purépecha Empire and Aztec Empire to expand into this area in the 15th century brought this to an end. Before the colonial period, the area had always been sparsely populated with widely dispersed settlements. The arrival of the Aztecs caused many to flee and the later arrival of the Spanish had the same effect. For this reason, there are few archeological remains; however, recent work especially at La Soledad de Maciel has indicated that the cultures here are more important than previously thought. Today, the area economically is heavily dependent on agriculture, livestock, fishing and forestry, with only Zihuatanejo and Ixtapa with significantly developed infrastructure for tourism. The rest of the coast has been developed spottily, despite some government efforts to promote the area. (en)
- La región de la Costa Grande es una de las siete regionesque conforman el estado de Guerrero, al suroeste de México. Se ubica en parte del sur, suroeste y oeste del estado, colindando al norte con la región de Tierra Caliente y parte del estado de Michoacán, al sur con el Océano Pacífico, al oeste con el estado de Michoacán y parte del océano Pacífico, y al este con las regiones de Acapulco y Centro. Esta región se distingue por su gran potencial de riquezas naturales como lo son litorales, bosques de pinos, huertas frutales y tierras fértiles. Una de las principales poblaciones de esta región es Zihuatanejo, así como otras situadas alrededor de la costa, éstas cuentan con gran afluencia turística, agro-industrias y huertas de cocoteros.
