Where to go in Huatulco-Vacation & Travel Information

Puerto Escondido is a low-key destination in Oaxaca, Mexico

A few years back I visited Huatulco on the coast of Oaxaca. It was a great vacation and I wanted to go back to Oaxaca, but, as much as I liked Huatulco, I was looking for something more down to earth, even more laid-back, and with more travelers than tourists. So I dug out my backpack and bought a flight to Puerto Escondido via Mexico City. I was aware of its reputation as a surfing center, but the fact that I don’t surf didn’t deter me; I loved the photos I’d seen and I was sure there would be beaches that were good for swimming.

Activities in Huatulco, Oaxaca, Mexico

Huatulco may be one of the smaller and quieter Mexican beach resorts, but when it comes to activities and tours there is more to do than you’ll have time for, no matter how long you stay. The first thing you notice about Huatulco is the sheer number of beaches and bays in a relatively small area – nine bays and thirty-six beaches. If all you like doing is just discovering and exploring different kinds of lovely beaches with maybe a picnic box, then there is already more than enough. If you like swimming and snorkeling too, then there are some great beaches for it. My personal favorites for swimming are Santa Cruz, Conejos, Maguey, Arrocito, and Tangolunda. Santa Cruz and Maguey are as calm as swimming pools, Conejos and Arrocito have a few more waves but are still calm, and Tangolunda is a good place to swim if you want more wave action, though occasionally it can be too rough for anyone. For snorkeling there is no doubt that the best three are La Entrega, San Agustin, and Maguey, and probably in that order.
