Troncones consists of a several mile long dirt road right along the beach, with some nice homes and several bed&breakfast establishments. The dust on the road is absolutely choking, and in some places sits 1 or 2 inches deep on the road. It is super fine dust like sifted baker's flour. Alot of home owners hose down the road in front of their houses several times a day to control it. Troncones is about 25 miles up the coast from Zihuatanejo and and is located about 3 miles off of Highway 200. It is a 1/2 hour drive from Zihua. Most of Troncones faces open ocean surf and is not that good for surfing. However, there is very good surfing at Manzanillo Bay off of the left point. To get to Manzanillo Bay you would take the Troncones pull-off from Highway 200, go 2 to 3 KM to the T, and turn right. Then follow the dirt road for 2+ miles to Manzanillo Bay. There is a nice inn there, right at the point, called the "The Inn at Manzanillo Bay". The beach in the bay has good swimming and excellent body srurfing and body boarding. Most of the surfers, do so at the point.
