French Bombardment of Acapulco

- 10 January 1863
- Where
- Acapulco
A French squadron bombarded the Pacific port of Acapulco on 10 January 1863.
On 10 January 1863, a French squadron bombarded the Pacific port of Acapulco. This event is distinct from the occupation of Veracruz. The legacy row's date of 15 January 1863 for a bombardment of Veracruz is likely a confusion with this event or the earlier occupation.
