There is only one restaurant here, we picked a table and moved in for a few hours. We only ordered cerveza and papas fritas. A lady sells coconuts and fresh fruits, we like our coconuts chilled for a while, which she did for us. All reasonably priced. We met Miguel with a boat named Miranda. My wife approached him to ask about going to Playa San Augustin. Well, Miguel gave us a great offer! He picked the five of us up the next day at Playa Arrocito at 7am, proceeded straight out to sea for 45 minutes for some fishing. After I spent 30 minutes reeling in a 60lb sailfish we then headed back to towards 7 of the bays starting with Playa San Augustin. On the way we saw many sea turtles, even a mating pair. The favorite part for the whole family was spending 20 minutes boating around a Super Pod of dolphins! We stayed at Playa San Augustin for a couple of hours, hanging out at LaLa 's restaurant watching some local kids surf and swimming. Food was good but we thought a bit overpriced for the region. Saw six more bays and the blow hole on the way back to Santa Cruz where he dropped us off at 3pm. Whole trip cost was a fantastic 3000pesos plus tip. You can reach Juan Miguel at 0449581306541. We texted him through WhatsApp.

Bahia de Santa Cruz is an amazing place to take a break from your hotel and take a trip through the…read morebeautiful bays of Huatulco! After our wedding, my husband and I decided to rent a Catamaran to take all of our guests on a bay tour. We rented the Tequila Catamaran which took us all around Huatulco and dropped us off in a private virgin beach. Before heading to this private tour, the crew of the boat recommended all of our guests to rent snorkeling equipment from a small shop located inside the Bahia de Santa Cruz, which was really affordable. Something that I think is pretty funny about this port, is that they have a small gas station next to the water to fill up all of the small fishing boats that come in.

Next to the beach there´s a small plaza with a kiosk in the middle, in it there´s a little coffee shop with tables & chairs to sit it. Their coffee is amazing, organic, local produced and fresh everyday. We also tried the milkshakes, the best were coconut & vanilla. Since we stayed at a hotel a few meters away, every morning we would buy our coffee here and bring it to the hotel´s restaurant. There are some stores that sell everything from keychains, cups, t-shirts, swim suits, sandals & water toys for the kids. The only annoying thing is the restaurant employees, you´re 10 mts away fromt he beach but they´re all bothering you to choose their restaurant.

I've been visiting Huatulco ever since I was a baby, and up until 3 years ago I have never visited…read morethis beach. My family & I fell in love when we first visited. The water is clear blue and it's so calm, perfect to bring your kids & have an awesome time at the beach. Like most of the beaches there's restaurants that offer seafood & drinks (don't forget to order some coconut water to stay hydrated specially if you're drinking beers!). There's parking available, the problem I see is every time you visit this beach or any other beach with restaurants, is when you arrive all the employees from the restaurants jump in front of you to try to convince you to go to their business, it can get very annoying so what we always say is no thank you & close the windows or my husbands' idea is saying oh there's someone waiting for us already, even though this might not always help.

HUGE WAVES. SO MANY DOGS. GREAT VIEWS…read more As part of our Oaxaca trip, my partner and I made an excursion to Playa Zipolite to explore the beach town and relax on the shore. It's quite the laidback hippy town, evident from its holistic wellness stores, CBD shops, and eclectic boutiques. We tried our best to find local-owned businesses to patronize. Very walkable and plenty of eateries to enjoy. NOTE: Playa Zipolite is a nude beach, for those who are interested in that lifestyle.

We spent hours just enjoying the sounds of crashing waves. The water is clear and cool, and the sand is warm to the touch. Along the bank are a vast variety of restaurants and bars. Ample space along the shore for seating, though limited shade. At high tide, the waves reach far along the sand-- no chair is safe LOL. Water is only suitable for experienced swimmers. We saw a few people get overwhelmed by the strong currents. NOTE: Two lifeguards are stationed on opposite sides of the beach, both incredibly alert of the waves and tourists. We felt very safe knowing they were ready to respond at a moment's notice.
