Playa Puerto Escondido
10 I Z

We had an amazing time fishing with Disfruta la Pesca con Gume! The beach was fantastic, and we enjoyed some delicious food at the Le Pecador restaurant. It's also a perfect spot to observe the boats coming and going from the Harbor.

Zicatela Beach
10 John Smith

Walking along a lengthy sandy beach, with the crashing waves beside you, and cautiously placing each step on the sand, is truly gratifying. Every now and then, you can feel the refreshing touch of the fading wave cooling your feet. This beach is absolutely fantastic.

Playa Tierra Blanca
10 Zdenek Novak

This beach is a surfer's paradise, with consistent waves throughout the day. The morning hours offer a quieter atmosphere with only a handful of surfers, allowing you and your friends to have the beach to yourselves. The sandy bottom and clear water make for a pristine surfing experience, free of any rocks or pollution. It's no surprise that this is my go-to spot for catching waves. Keep an eye out for turtles, whales, and flying rays, as they are often spotted in the area.

Playa Los Naranjos
10 Sandy Lane

The mangroves are really amazing. Crocodiles, iguanas, and turtles in all their glory. The guide was excellent.

Playa El Tomatal
10 Niklas Johansen

However, it is important to note that there is no infrastructure available, which means that visitors will need to bring their own umbrellas and other necessary items.
