Global Ports Holding (GPH) announced the signing of a concession for Acapulco Cruise Port, highlighting a partnership with ASIPONA and their shared vision for the destination’s future.

The partners said that they share a commitment to enhancing infrastructure, improving operational efficiency and delivering a high-quality passenger experience.

On April 9, 2026, GPH signed a 24-year concession agreement to operate and develop the cruise terminal across a 17,199-square-meter area, marking GPH’s entry into Mexico and a step in its Americas expansion.

GPH said in a press release that under the concession, GPH will implement phased investments to upgrade facilities, improve passenger flow and introduce new commercial and leisure offerings.

These efforts will be supported by destination-driven initiatives and new shore-side experiences aimed at further elevating Acapulco’s positioning within Pacific and Mexican Riviera itineraries.

In parallel, ASIPONA is expected to deliver a new 350-meter berth, planned for completion in Q1 2027, enabling the port to accommodate larger, modern cruise vessels.

According to the press release, these developments signal a coordinated and long-term approach to strengthening Acapulco’s role as a key cruise destination.
