Hurricane Otis struck the Pacific coast of Mexico five miles south of Acapulco on Oct. 25, 2023, as a Category 5 storm with sustained winds of 165 mph, surpassing Hurricane Patricia as the strongest recorded hurricane to make landfall on Mexico’s Pacific coastline.
Otis damaged nearly 80% of hotels and 96% of businesses in Acapulco, a city whose economy is largely built around tourism. At least 49 people were killed, and 220,000 homes were damaged.
