Chacahua has a mesmerizing and unspoiled coastline, with parts of the beach retaining their pristine state. The night sky is adorned with breathtaking stars, while the surf provides an exciting experience. Lucky visitors may even catch a glimpse of turtles and whales. On select evenings, the lagoon puts on a spectacular bioluminescence show. The weekends are bustling with people, offering opportunities to socialize and indulge in affordable local cuisine. Chacahua is conveniently connected to nearby destinations, making it an ideal vacation spot. The only drawbacks are the need for two modes of transportation or a personal vehicle to access the beach and the absence of a net. Nevertheless, the allure of this place is undeniable, and a visit is highly recommended. Don't forget to ask for Vicente, the best guide in El Zapotalito, to ensure a memorable trip.
