The Neighborhood:
Puerto Escondido is known for its amazing food, water activities, and probably more than anything surfing! Playa Zicatela is the ultimate proving ground for advanced and daring surfers, a no-go zone for the uninitiated. La Punta, just 10 minutes south of Zicatela, is an excellent surfing spot for the intermediate level. For beginner surfers, your best bet is Playa Carrizalillo.
While Puerto Escondido is definitely most well-known for its famous surf, snorkeling and scuba diving are not to be left out! Located on the Pacific coast, the ocean here boasts abundant sea life and coral. Puerto Escondido has a variety of calm beaches that make up the best places for these activities, such as Carrizalillo, Puerto Angelito, Manzanillo, and Coral Beach. If you get the chance to go out on a boat, you’ll probably encounter schools of dolphins or, if you’re lucky, humpback whales!
