Puerto Escondido
Surf capital of the coast
Puerto Escondido → Huatulco
A free travel guide to Oaxaca's Pacific coast, from Puerto Escondido to Huatulco. Hand-picked places, a map that works when your signal doesn't, and the only straight answer on how to get between towns.
Most guides treat these towns as separate trips. They aren't. They sit an hour or two apart along one stretch of Highway 200, so we built a single guide for the whole corridor, town by town.

Each town is curated by someone who actually lives and works there.
Every listing is chosen by a local curator: one trusted voice per town. No star ratings, no review spam, no pay-to-rank. Just the places worth your time.
Download a town before you go and the map, listings, and photos all work with no signal: on the beach, on the colectivo, anywhere the bars drop. One small coast map, then a lightweight pack per town.
Every place sits on an interactive map, color-coded by category, so you can see what's near you and what's near everything else.
Food · Beaches · Activities · Nightlife · Services · Stay. From the best ceviche to the nearest ATM, surf breaks to quiet swimming coves.
Heart the places you love and find them again in a tap, grouped by town, available offline.
Today's sunset and the next daylight low tide for every town. Small things that actually shape an afternoon.
Getting between these towns is half the trip, and it trips up almost everyone. Colectivos you flag from the roadside, vans, taxis, mototaxis, the airport runs. The guide walks you through every town-to-town journey in plain language: the steps, the rough time, and what it should cost in pesos, plus how colectivos, taxis, and private transfers really work on this coast.
Own a hotel, restaurant, tour, or shop on the coast? A featured listing puts you in front of travelers who are actively planning their trip. Editorial stays editorial: featured placements are clearly labeled and never change how curators choose.
