Divers plunge off cliffs 130 feet high into the a cove that is only safe to dive in when the wave comes in. Wrong timing would result in a fatal fall. Dives are scheduled at 1pm, and in hours of darkness at 7pm, 8:30pm, 9:30pm, 10:30pm. At night the divers carry torches to light their descent.
Dives can be viewed from balconies near the cove, for a small entrance fee. Alternatively, there is a hotel nearby, called El Mirador, which has a Restaurant-Bar called La Perla. You can watch the divers while eating your meal, or if you buy a drink at the bar.
The Cliff divers are a famous trademark of Acapulco. Located above downtown Acapulco, La Quebrada is rock of 130 feet above the Pacific Ocean. The divers perform daily in the afternoon and at night (very spectacular), sometime with a torch. The divers jump into a small inlet, trying to coincide perfectly with a huge incoming wave to protect them from the rocks. Great show, you cannot miss it while in Acapulco. Try to arrive early to get a good view.
