A Jewel Nestled Between Sea and Mountains
With its nine bays, its 36 powdery white-sand beaches, its crystal-clear blue waters, its surrounding mountains, its peacefulness and the white-water rapids of the nearby Río Copalito, the relatively recent resort area of Huatulco (Bahías de Huatulco) is set to become one of Mexico's key attractions for travellers in search of well preserved natural surroundings, environmentally-friendly ecotourism, and outdoor activities such as sailing and snorkelling.
Attractions
Tangolunda
The Bahía de Tangolunda is the most developed of Huatulco's bays, with resorts and a top-notch 18-hole golf course. The actual city is resplendent with the luxury of a high-class resort town. Tangolunda is modest in size but not in ambition: it offers all the necessary ingredients for a dream vacation.
Santa Cruz
Tour boats depart from Santa Cruz to criss-cross the bays of Huatulco. This small town's beach is lined with restaurants where visitors can eat under the stars while their feet bathe in the sea. One of the town's most picturesque features is its marina, which is set right in the middle of the village and is connected to the bay by a short channel.
La Crucecita
The charming pueblo of La Crucecita lies about 1.5km inland and boasts a pretty zócalo (square) and a public market where visitors can buy the famous Oaxacan pottery that is made from the region's black clay. La Crucecita also features a boarding pier where cruises leave for the bays of Huatulco.
Chahué
Chahué's lovely hotels are located near the bay of the same name. Visitors will also find a modest shopping mall here. An interesting park, with modern landscaping and some monumental architectural elements, stretches out between Boulevard Benito Juárez and Playa Chahué.
Going Out
Huatulco is the perfect place to take it easy. At the end of the day, those who are looking for entertainment will have no trouble finding a place to party or dance the night away. Many hotels organise their own evenings, which often include dinner, dancing, a show and complimentary drinks.
Where on earth
Located on the Pacific Coast in the Mexican State of Oaxaca, Huatulco lies about 430km south of Acapulco, near Puerto Escondido and the city of Oaxaca. The Bahías de Huatulco feature beautiful beaches, many of which can be reached by motorboat (lancha). The four main parts of Huatulco are Tangolunda, where the more upscale resorts are located; Santa Cruz, a little town with hotels, a marina and a beach; La Crucecita, a little village set back from the coast; and Chahué, a still rather undeveloped area that stretches out between Santa Cruz and Tangolunda.
