Nestled on the Oaxacan coast of Mexico, Puerto Escondido has established itself as an essential destination for travelers worldwide. Originally a small fishing port, today it is famous for its golden sand beaches and, above all, for the legendary Zicatela Beach, known as the "Mexican Pipeline" due to its imposing waves that attract professional and amateur surfers. But Puerto Escondido is much more than surfing; beaches like Carrizalillo, with its calm waters and access via a scenic staircase, or Bacocho, ideal for releasing turtles at sunset, offer diverse experiences. The local culture is palpable at the Benito Juárez Market, a feast of colors, flavors, and crafts. Gastronomy is another of its strong points, fusing fresh seafood with Oaxacan culinary tradition, where tlayudas and pescado a la talla are protagonists. The nightlife is lively, especially in Zicatela and La Punta, with options ranging from relaxed beach bars to clubs with live music. This destination offers a complete experience, combining the adrenaline of its water sports, the beauty of its natural landscapes, a rich cultural offering, and the warmth of its people, promising an unforgettable adventure and guaranteed deep enjoyment.
Your trip to Puerto Escondido begins with good planning. Purchase your plane tickets and book your accommodation in advance to secure the best options and rates, especially if you are traveling during the November Festivities or holiday periods. Once at the destination, Puerto Escondido International Airport (PXM) is a few kilometers from the center. To get around, you can opt for taxis, which are convenient for short distances, or the economical 'colectivos' (shared taxis or passenger vans) that cover main routes. Renting a scooter or a car will give you more flexibility if you plan to explore the surroundings. Don't miss the emblematic beaches: Zicatela is a surfer's paradise, but its strong currents make it dangerous for inexperienced swimmers. For a quieter and more family-friendly atmosphere, visit Carrizalillo (accessible by a staircase), Puerto Angelito, or Manzanillo, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Bacocho Beach is famous for its turtle releases at sunset. Immerse yourself in the local culture at the Benito Juárez Market, where you will find fresh produce, typical Oaxacan food such as tlayudas, mole, and grasshoppers, as well as handicrafts. Gastronomy is a delight; try the grilled fish (pescado a la talla) and fresh seafood at the beach restaurants. For unique experiences, consider a tour to the Manialtepec Lagoon to observe birds and the bioluminescence phenomenon at night. If you are looking for nightlife, the Zicatela and La Punta areas offer bars and clubs with music and a festive atmosphere. Secure your passes for tours and special activities in advance on this platform to enjoy a complete and worry-free experience.
