Puerto Escondido is a small port and tourist
center in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Today,
it is known as the area’s most famous beach.

​

Puerto Escondido is one of the most important tourist attractions on the Oaxacan coast.
The main attractions are the beaches.

We were looking for a very relaxing vacation where we could have the beach to
ourselves. Honestly, I’ve never seen a place like this before; not a single person walks
by you. For a very good price, you can rent a house with your own private beach.
Houses are typically very big so you can fit a lot of friends. The views are awesome and
you don’t even need to leave the house, because there is live-in staff available and they
can cook for you.

If you are looking for this type of vacation, this is the place to go! There are a couple of
beach restaurants and bars in town, but we decided to stick to the house!
Zicatela Beach hosts major surfing competitions, while other beaches have gentle
waves.

The area attracts scuba divers, because of the variety of fish, large oysters, lobsters
and manta rays.

Enjoy!
