A metal bust of a man wearing a shot sleeved shirt and a kufi type cap has both hands wrapped around the bottom of an alto saxophone. The upper part of the saxophone is by his right shoulder. The man is depicted from the mid chest up with both arms resting on a circular limestone base.

The Sinfonia del Mar is a large city-owned amphitheater with a fantastic location overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the La Quebrada Cliffs, the site of the famous Acapulco cliff divers. Bench seating is divided into an upper section of sixteen rows with a large central section which is flanked by two smaller sections. There is also five rows of seating, in two sections, on the bottom separated from the rest of the seating above. Seats are reached by stairs between the seating sections and on either end of the amphitheater. The oval concrete stage area contains large red sunburst design.

The amphitheater is used for musical performances and symphony concerts and is a very popular place to watch the sunset over the Pacific Ocean to the west. Admission to the Sinfonia del Mar is free. Restrooms are available during events and at sunset.
