Best experience ever. Every morning you are lovingly awaited at the diving school. If there is a problem, you will be helped immediately, “no rush, everything will be fine”. I am very pleased with the way of teaching and highly recommend this diving school!

Hands down the best diving school that I ever went diving with. Virgilio, Carlos en Tito know so much about everything there is to see both in and out of the water around the national park. They are also just a great bunch. Had a super nice time with them and would visit again any time I’ll be around. Look no further. Highly recommendable place!

Great dive op in Huatulco! They are very knowledgeable, attentive and truly care about marine health. We will definitely dive with them when we come back to Huatulco next time!

Everybody has been extraordinary nice to us, the team is all marine biologists, so they know exclusively well about the sea and can give you a well-guided diving or snorkeling tour! On the boat there was snacks, drinks and lots of answers for all our questions! Thanks Virgilio and team!

I highly recommend diving with Buceo Huatulco. We saw great wildlife, including an incredible number of rays. We learned a lot from our dive guides, who are local marine biologists. Plus, the service was excellent. Buceo Huatulco made diving convenient, with transportation, equipment rentals, and all the marina and boat fees rolled up into one cost for us. We wanted to dive for two days during a longer trip throughout Oaxaca, so we didn’t have all our gear with us. The BCDs and regulators we received were in great shape. We dove four dives with Virgilio, with Cathy supporting us from the boat, which has ample cover for shade. Virgilio is an excellent dive guide. He’s friendly, chill, and supportive. He only takes small groups (five people max) and can accommodate different dive-skill levels. We are PADI Rescue divers with hundreds of dives, and we were very satisfied on a dive with divers with less experience due to Virgilio’s ability to manage that. He also knows where to dive on any given day. The bahias are sandy bays so visibility can vary. Highlights of our dives included: * many, many rays -- more than I have ever seen on one dive * a guitarfish, who we learned from Cathy and Virgilio is actually a ray. * many different kinds of starfish -- all sorts of colors * shoaling fish, large-banded blennies, hawksbill turtles, triggerfish, pufferfish, brilliant blue damselfish * plentiful coral coverage that looked healthy (can’t take that for granted these days) Virgilio and Cathy are both marine biologists and local to the area. Virgilio has co-authored research papers about scientific diving and the health of local coral, and Cathy is working on her thesis on sea turtles. Needless to say, we learned a lot about the marine ecology of Bahias de Huatulco and got great food and beach recommendations. We also had lunch with them (not as part of the tour), and they took us to some great places with fresher-than-fresh seafood. We wouldn’t have found these places on our own. As we’ve come to expect on our many trips to Mexico, the people are everything. And the people at Buceo Huatulco are no exception. They love Huatulco. They love the oceans and they love marine biology. That passion came through in our experience with them. If you are a diver in the area, don’t miss Buceo Huatulco.

I just came back from diving with Carlos and Virgilio and had the best day! Such a nice experience diving with them as they made me feel very confortable :) they are very experienced divers and I found it very interesting to talk to them about the effects of climate change and hear their view as marine biologists and environmental engieers (hope I remember correctly). The group was super nice and we went for an excellent tlayuda after the dive. Would recommend diving with them 100%! Muchas gracias a los dos! Besitos 😘

Went diving yesterday and it was an amazing experience , the staff really go beyond for their customers , super trusted, Virgilio is very knowledgeable and has a pretty amazing personality. I’ve got to see so much under water life , it was awesome. Book it you won’t regret it.

Love these guys so much. It’s been a few years since my last dive and they literally took me by the arm and helped me get my balance. Friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. If you are looking for a place to take courses or a brief refresher this is the spot! Made me feel so welcome and the dive was magical.

We had the most wonderful diving experience with Buceo Huatulco! Planning it with Pilar was smooth and our day out with Virgilio and Carlos was a highlight of our two weeks in Huatulco. My partner is a former scuba dive instructor and I'm not licensed but they accommodated us and ensured I had extra oxygen if needed. They also had options for me, such as going down on a rope (which I didn't need). The equipment and boat were in excellent condition and the dives were lovely - first 9m and then 16m, in two different locations. We saw a variety of rays, starfish, needle fish, octopus, and to our surprise and delight, a seahorse, among other things. Carlos used a Go-Pro to film parts of the dive and that was shared with us after. Also important to us was the care they all have for the environment. They have truly good values and that shows. They spoke of the work they are doing to protect the reefs, which is admirable. We highly recommend them!

Had a great time diving with these guys. My wife is certified, but just barely. They were very patient and helpful with her. Super easy to work with. Prompt, courteous, and safe. Will be back again, and would book with Buceo Huatulco again. Also - I think they might be one of the only shop that dives on a Sunday, maybe this will help someone - helped us!

I absolutely LOVE this scuba company! This is my second trip to Huatulco, and I make sure I dive with with Buceo each time I come. Buceo is fun, caring and has excellent equipment. We met at their dive shop, signed the forms, and then headed out to the marina. On the boat, all our towels were stored in a dry area as we took the boat to our dive location. We only brought masks and dive computers - Buceo provided the rest. All was good. We once again had Carlos as our Dive Master, and was joined by Kat who is well on her way to becoming a DM. Carlos sets a lovely pace, and points out every creature - big and small. He's also very knowledgeable about the coral and the shape it's in - global warming has not been kind to our oceans! Between dives, we had a variety of drinks, and lots of fresh fruit. We spotted a whale breaching as we went to our second dive location, so the captain quickly slowed and took us as close as we could get without disturbing the whale. For the Canadians who are visiting - Carlos and Kat speak excellent English. We get caught up on the latest happenings in Huatulco, and always have a wonderful time with this amazing crew. I highly recommend Buceo! Alisen

This was a great experience. The staff were very welcoming, extremely personable and wanted nothing more than to make sure you enjoyed your experience. Our dive instructor Carlos did everything he could to make sure we were comfortable with everything that was required to be certified as an open diver. I couldn't say anything more other than if you're looking to be PADI certified this is where you should go!!

I can't say enough good things about this local business. I am so glad we choose them. They are local, Mexican, kind, passionate, patient, generous, and really wanted us to succeed. Never were we rushed or felt like a bother. The fresh fruit was perfect in between dives. I can't recommend this small company enough!! Thank you Buceo Huatulco!!

SIMPLY THE BEST! Virgilio and Kat are just great and seem to love what they do! At the same time very professional and extremely friendly. The feel was that we went out for a dive with good friends who were taking fantastic care of us. My wife was on a discovery dive and Virgilio was extremely careful and attentive with her while at the same time gently pushing her to go beyond (what she thought were) her limits. Besides that all the gear was in great condition and they brought to the boat very good snacks (fresh fruit, nuts and candy) and drinks (water and soda) for the surface time. Couldn't recommend more and certainly expect to be diving with them again :)

I highly recommend diving with Buceo Huatulco. I did my Advanced Open Water Course with Virgilio, Carlos and Cathy and the whole experience was great, I’m really glad I found them! They are all extremely welcoming and friendly, very professional and made me feel totally comfortable and safe. It is clear they are truly passionate about the ocean and love all marine life. We spotted loads of stingrays and a huge variety of fish. The night dive was incredible, we saw bioluminescent phytoplankton, turtles and lots of different nudibranch, it was so much fun! They were very patient and answered all my questions about the area, the marine life and how to improve my own diving techniques. I feel like I’ve learned a lot from them and it was a really nice way to meet some locals. A family I won’t forget ❤️

I spent three days diving with Virgilio, Tito and Carlos between 15 and 18 of june 2022. Buceo Huatulco has been a very good choice. Relaxed but very professional on the boat and in the water. Diving equipment in excellent conditions. Both, good service and good company. A lot of knowledge about local marine life and dive sites but also about the best taco options. It has been a pleasure!

Once you arrive, you will be approached immediately by restaurant staff trying to convince you to go into their restaurants. Facing the beach, walk to the right look for the bathrooms & showers & take the public path to the beach. The water was calm, lovely & incredibly clear. Be aware that in the afternoon numerous boat tours show up quickly and their customers are herded into the restaurants to be fleeced. I simply walked to a quiet area of the beach & set up my space and had an enjoyable time.

Tons of beach side restaurants of which the staff will accost you as soon as you get out of a taxi, trying to get you to come to their place. At the far left end of the beach, there's a small public swimming area where we were able to snorkel from and see a wide variety of small fish. The waves and current there were fine for swimming and our kids being in the water. Beautiful turquoise, warm water.

We snorkeled here one day, and went scuba diving further out a few days later. We had lunch here as well. The snorkeling and diving were both done on the north end of the bay along the rocky coast. Both were excellent and the best we have done so far in the Huatulco area. The lunch was another story - expensive and mediocre.

The second busiest beach in Huatulco since there are many restaurant. Obviously, a very good place if you want to eat but not if you want to swim

The surf had a shirt powerful break right at the beach and a bit of current. Snorkeling wasn't as good as the other beaches we visited. The restaurants accommodated us under an umbrella but getting drinks took awhile so we did not eat food. The staff called a taxi for us to return to town

We visited this beach while on a tour of the bays & beaches. Very busy beach, and the restaurants (although tasty) were super over-priced. The artisans here are selling some very beautiful pieces- look for the hand carved masks!

Beautiful❤️🫶🏽only thing this beach goes in deep very soon. Also be aware of the restaurants on the beach they tend to add extras to your tab.

The place is great location with a beautiful beach. However, be prepared to buy cell service, because there is no other signal available. Also, service is SUPER slow. The food was good. We were seated quickly, but went downhill after being seated. After we finished eating, we waited for the server and the bill. We asked 3x for an umbrella and chairs on the beach. We were told people are seated on the beach only by their server. Since our server clearly was in training, there were no more umbrellas available. When I pointed out there were now empty umbrellas, we were told only the server that placed them can seat us. Apparently, changing servers wasn't possible. After about 4 hours, we moved ourselves into an umbrella. Finally, when we were ready to leave, we had to track down our server to pay our bill. Then we had to wait 35 minutes for a taxi since this beach is in a remote area. It's beautiful, but not worth the aggravation.

Went on a Wednesday for 10:30 AM, not crazy busy until 2:30 pm as we were leaving a giant tourists catamaran arrived so we missed that. Big waves the day we went, definitely needed our lifejackets to swim on the right rocky side. The left bay side was calmer and we snorkeled there. The restaurants are plenty, we pack our own lunch and drinks so we did not try any out this time. Recommend for advanced swimmers and snorkeling 🤿.

Wonderful beach with lots of action. When we were there, the ocean was super calm and it was great for our small children to play.

Add this place to your Huatulco itinerary, it’s a bumpy road drive up to the falls but the experience is worth it. I recommend hiring a guide and not a large tour company, the reason is a guide will give you more time to explore the falls, the tour companies will be more in a rush. Also take water shoes for a safer and fun experience.

The clear cool water was amazing! Went with our own guide Chay and he knew all the ins and out of the falls. Not crowded on a weekday and definitely recommend going here when in Oaxaca.

It is a very beautiful place and we were able to enjoy it as a family. Our guide was very helpful and attentive, he gave us a lot of information about the entire waterfall region. excellent tour.

The 80 pesos per person they charged us when we parked the car was a surprise, but we think it was money well spent because they have made the area safe and fun for all ages.

They have turned into a Zip Line adventure park at the top of the waterfalls. It is controlled by locals so you aren't allowed your cameras beyond a certain point. They have set up a tourist trap there where you can buy the typical garbage. It's disappointing to see a natural spot turned into a cash grab. Otherwise it's quite beautiful

What a wonderful experience coming to the waterfalls. We enjoyed our time here. It takes a while to get here but its well worth it. There's a lot of curves on the road. There is a fee of 100 pesos per person. The walk down to the waterfalls is about 20 minute walk. There is baskets to dispose of you trash so olease do so lets keep these natural parks clean. Watch for snakes and other animals as we are in their home. A man with a "yellow shirt" at the waterfalls that will care and watch for your belongings he doesn't charge but will take a tip on your way out. On the way back out there is a small restaurant with delicious food for 100 pesos per person it was well worth it we had a braised beef in sauce, chicken stew, chicken mole, rice, beans and some large hand made tortillas, to drink they give you Hibiscus water, you can also purchase beer and other beverages there.

This was the coolest place we went to in huatulco. The walk up to the falls is very easy, and the water is amazing. Definitely would recommend a good pair of water shoes to climb up some of the rocks.

A nice nature tour, about 1.5 hrs drive from Tangolunda bay, offering the most refreshing dives in clear and refreshing waters. We arrived before noon, so had the place all for ourselves. A beautiful series of cascades and ropes that help you climb them up and down and also through a magical cave. Plan 1.5 hrs drive from Tangolunda or Crucesita and about 2 hrs for the walk and swim around the cascades. There is also a place at the bottom of the cascades to enjoy an authentic Oaxaca lunch.

We made it using Google maps but make sure to pre download the map prior to heading that way because your phone won't have signal. Recommended not going on rainy season since the last stretch of the road 3 miles would be a dirt road going up and down hill. I got there around 2 and left at 4 because it looked like it was going to rain and I didn't want to get stuck down there. We enjoyed the trip It was worth the drive.

Oscar tours brought us here. It was an amazing experience. The waterfalls are fantastic and a 10/10 experience. But the drive, the wildlife we saw, the lunch all made it even better. Make sure you check it out.

This is the beach of your dreams. Excellent snorkeling, clear turquoise water and so many fish. Reasonable prices at the beach restaurants and for the water equipment. We spent much of the day here swimming, eating and snorkeling. Morning til about 2pm was really quiet and we had the beach mostly to ourselves. After 2 there were more people but it was still not too crowded. Be sure to reseach the name of the beach and why it’s called entrega—interesting!

(Translated by Google) Excellent for snorkeling, ask for Genaro to rent the equipment, you can buy your new mouthpiece or use a sanitized one. (Original) Excelente para practicar snorkeling, pregunta por Genaro te renta el equipo, puedes comprar tu boquilla nueva o utilizar una sanitizada.

Good place to eat. Although it’s close to the city. The water is not clear. Since it’s close to the city. Water seems contaminated. Reefs and corals have green algae on them

Excelente to swim but too crowded for the same reason, we tried 2 restaurants and food was delicious, a little pricey.

Coral bay

Nice Place!

(Translated by Google) There is a marina post that does not allow you to put umbrellas or anything in front of the beach, they send you to the shore in front of the boatmen, the argument is that you do not let them see, but rather it seems like an arrangement with the restaurateurs to force you to consume with them in exchange for not getting burned in the sun. The beach is very beautiful but these details spoil your afternoon. (Original) Hay un puesto de la marina que no te permite poner sombrillas ni nada frente a la playa, te mandan hasta la orilla frente a los lancheros, el argumento es que no los dejas ver, pero más bien parece un arreglo con los restauranteros para obligarte a consumir con ellos a cambio de no quemarte al sol. La playa es muy bonita pero estos detalles te echan a perder la tarde.

(Translated by Google) It is a spectacular beach, clean, calm and with a super calm sea to swim at all times, from children to seniors, it has a snorkeling area, but even without equipment there are places where you can see the fish because its waters are crystal clear. Highly recommended!!, we went in January 2024, there were not many people perhaps because it was low season. Another tip is that it borders another small beach which has access between some stones to the south of this beach, it is very calm and its waters are also crystal clear, although the waves are a little rough, but you can swim well on the shores. (Original) Es una playa espectacular, limpia, tranquila y con el mar super tranquilo para nadar en todo momento, desde niños hasta personas mayores, tiene una zona snorkelear, pero aún sin equipo hay lugares donde se ven los peces pues sus aguas son cristalinas. Muy recomendable!!, acudimos en enero de 2024, no había mucha gente quizás por ser temporada baja. Otro tip, es que colinda con otra playita pequeña la cual tiene acceso entre unas piedras hacia el sur de esta playa, es muy tranquila y sus aguas cristalinas también, aunque el oleaje es un poco brusco, pero se puede nadar bien en las orillas.

A pretty little town at the top of the mountains. Great views in the center of the Oxahacan coffee region. This is where it all happens, great little coffee places and cute church, a must see if coffee is your passion.

A very enjoyable place to be

WOW! Very impressive.

It's was amazing

(Translated by Google) Excellent reserve, it has paradisiacal fruits such as mangosteen, rambutan, noni, cocoa, star fruit, among others. You can try them if you buy the breakfast package which is highly recommended. Inside you will find many flowers and fruits, there is a waterfall but the time to swim is not very long, it is better to dip your feet and take photos. I would visit it again on my next trip to Huatulco. (Original) Excelente reserva, tiene frutas paradisíacas como mangostán, rambután, noni, cacao, carambola, entre otras. Puedes probarlas si compras el paquete de desayuno lo cual es súper recomendado. Dentro encontrarás muchas flores y frutas, hay una cascada pero el tiempo para nadar no es muy grande, conviene más para sumergir los pies y sacar fotos. Volvería a visitarlo en mi próximo viaje a Huatulco.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, with history and delicious food. (Original) Hermoso lugar , con historia y deliciosa comida.

(Translated by Google) A small but very beautiful parish is home to the largest image of a virgin in the world. (Original) Una parroquia pequeña pero muy bonita, se encuentra la imagen de virgen más grande del mundo.

We had an awesome day long sight seeing tour. Saw so much different sea life and great views. Snorkeling was AWESOME. Staff could not have been more wonderful. Lifetime memories!

Take a friends. Learn Spanish. Set clear expectations with vendors on how much you intend to spend. Ask for prices before you order drinks.

Trips are offered to know the bays it is highly recommended the rays are beautiful it is an unforgettable experience

(Translated by Google) It is a very well organized cooperative that takes you to enjoy the most emblematic places in Huatulco, in addition to being aware of their conservation. In addition to the bays, they take you to other places such as the Manglares de la Ventanilla, Mazunte, Puerto Ángel, Las Cascadas, etc. Messrs. Neri Pinacho and Miguel (I don't remember his last name) attended to us. The service was excellent, super punctual when looking for us at the hotel, in addition to recommending very good places to have breakfast. (Original) Es una cooperativa muy bien organizada que te lleva a disfrutar los lugares más emblemáticos de Huatulco, además de estar pendiente de la conservación de los mismos. Además de las bahías te llevan a conocer otros lugares como los Manglares de la Ventanilla, Mazunte, Puerto Ángel, Las cascadas, etc. A nosotros nos atendieron los señores Neri Pinacho y Miguel (no recuerdo su apellido). La atención fue excelente, súper puntuales al buscarnos al hotel, además de recomendarnos lugares muy buenos para desayunar.

(Translated by Google) Boat tours are big scams. Excessively expensive for the actual tour (all the bays on the tour are half an hour or less away, and in most cases they can be reached by land). I think it's not worth taking a boat but rather going directly to the bay called playa la delivery (by land), where you can snorkel for a very good price (100 pesos free time), without paying for useless transportation. Additionally, credit card charges add 16% of the amount (clearly VAT, which they would not pay if you gave the money in cash). In general, I do not recommend taking this type of tour, especially those in front of the port. (Original) Los tours en lancha son grandes estafas. Exageradamente caros para el recorrido real (todas las bahías del paseo se encuentran a media hora o menos, y en el mayor de los casos se puede llegar por tierra a ellas). Creo que no vale la pena tomar una lancha sino ir directamente a la bahía llamada playa la entrega (por tierra), donde se puede hacer snorkel por muy buen precio (100 pesos tiempo libre), sin pagar el inútil transporte. Adicionalmente los cargos con tarjeta de crédito le agregan el 16% del monto (claramente el IVA, que no pagarían si dieras el dinero en efectivo). En general no recomiendo nada tomar este tipo de tours, y más los que se encuentran frente al puerto.

(Translated by Google) The 7 bays tour lasts 7 hours because the catamaran is very slow. I recommend a private boat which doesn't cost much and goes fast. The catamaran stops you to eat in a bad place which they themselves warn you is bad when you are about to arrive and they leave you there for 2 hours in addition to being expensive. Better to just go see the bays from afar so as not to disturb the fauna. (Original) El paseo de las 7 bahías dura 7 horas debido a que el catamarán es muy lento. Recomiendo una lancha privada el cual no cuesta mucho y va rápido. El catamaran te paran a comer en un lugar malo el cual te advierten ellos mismos que es malo ya cuando estas a punto de llegar y te dejan ahi por 2 horas ademas de caro. Mejor solo ir a ver las bahías de lejos para no molestar a la fauna.

(Translated by Google) Nice place to visit, many routes, quiet (Original) Bonito lugar para visitar, muchos recorridos, tranquilo

We dragged our feet before we got here. Shouldn’t have. It’s a beautiful park and you should set aside 2-3 hours to see it. Very friendly personnel and if you like to you can hire a guide. We didn’t. We were planning to come back with some friends and do it again with a guide but unfortunately that did not happen. Oh well next year. Part of the park is a bit steep so be prepared.

This is museum park around Archeological digs in the area, highlighting the indigenous people of this region (Mixtec & Zapotec). Temples, town & ball court are some of the digs that can be seen. There's also the spectacular views of the meeting between river and ocean. Highly recommended.

This place is a very good place to go to if you love history and invest in some really good bug spray. The information plaques are both in Spanish and English so you can more easily understand what your reading. The artifacts are quite interesting and the buildings are in quite good condition. The lookout is well worth the extra walk. My only complaint is that part of the park was closed so the loop to the lookout and back turned into a return trip instead.

This is my 3rd time visiting parque eco-arqueologico but today I did it on my own , some breathe taking sceneries the museum is amazing with the ancient artifacts and carvings it's an easy walk the guided tour is alitte pricey but very well done , if your in the area this is a definate must to see !!

The park was open but we were told that participation in one of their organized tours was mandatory to visit the park, and that there are only three organized tours a day (the next one not starting for an hour). These tours are only offered in Spanish with no English accompaniment or option. The cost for the guided tour would be “by donation” with a recommended donation of at least 300 pesos per person. We asked if there was an option to pay an entrance fee and do self-guided visit, as we do not speak Spanish, and they said no. We were also told the archaeological museum is closed with no estimated opening. It was a shame as we were really looking forward to this!

The guides offer 2 hrs guided Spanish tours over stone paths. The paths are not really suitable for walkers wheelchairs or strollers and it sounded as if the viewpoints were not accessible at all. That said, if you can physically do it, it sounded like a good tour. Suggested donation 300 pesos each. It’s about 100 peso taxi ride to the place.

LIMITED HOURS many reviews are from years ago when it was under different ownership. Now you must use a guide, only 3 SPANISH ONLY tours during the day (9a, 11a and 2:30 p.m.) and a $300 donation is suggested. There are no jaguars, you cannot see the ruins and it is a 1.5 to 2 hour walk to a viewpoint over the water. Sad as it looks like it was once a beautiful building and area. Most all the facilities ans stores are closed. we decided to leave, unfortunate they don't take advantage of tourism and interest to see the ruins.

Bahía de Cacaluta is in my top 3 of the most beautiful beaches I have visited in Huatulco! It is HUGE, the views are spectacular and it is very quiet, you feel like you have this huge bay all for yourself. I didn't try to swim, as the waves seemed a little big. I came there by foot. The entrance is called "Sendero Sanate - Bahia Cacaluta". There are a few parking spots at the entrance. The hike is very easy and pleasant (15 to 20 minutes max). There are many educational signs along the hike to learn more about the national park and the Sanate laguna. I saw lots of lizards and birds on the way. Apparently there are crocodiles in the laguna but I didn't see any. Maybe because it was very dry. The trail leads to the left side of the beach, you can walk all the way to the right side where you can find a few restaurants. There is no shade so be careful of the heat. I had a delicious lemonade at the restaurant to cool down a little. Then I came back from the same way I arrived. There is another trail leaving from behind the restaurants, but I don't know where it leads. When I come back someday, I hope I'll be able to swim and do some snorkeling.

Es un lugar maravilloso, limpio y con poca gente… me quedé a acampar con mi familia por una noche. Muy recomendable, seguro y con buena atención en el Capi… No olviden llevar comida y bebida! (Translated by Google) It is a wonderful place, clean and with few people… I stayed camping with my family for one night. Highly recommended, safe and with good attention in the Cap… Don't forget to bring food and drink!

Great hike for about 40 min and we had the beach almost for our selfs. Great snorkling at the right side of the beach. Strong current, don't go far out. Bring your on drinks and food.

The best freakin’ beach in Huatulco. If you love isolated places and don’t mind being alone on a big beach, this is your place. There aren’t many places for shelter except for the family that runs a restaurant. I suggest bringing lots of water, sunscreen, and adequate coverage as the sun here can be intense. We took a taxi here but make sure you either organize a ride back prior (no service), otherwise you will have to hike on the road back to the roundabout to get a ride. It is a 40 minute walk to the beach from the road.

Our favourite beach. Worth the walk. These photos are from the past. We camped there once. It was the most beautiful experience.

Amazing beach and awesome snorkeling across from beach at the island. Water is full of jumping eagle rays, super entertaining. I don't know if it was time of tide or time of year but had no issue swimming across to island with my wife. We parked at the end of the road and took a shuttle for $60 pesos each return down the bumpy road. I walk and run a lot but had no interest in doing the buggy walk to beach. I also noticed that several businesses were open to sell food/drinks and the generic taxis from town make it all the way there as well. Totally worth it.

Nice hike to a secluded beach. Make sure to bring lots of mosquito spray for the hike or wear long clothes, otherwise they will eat you alive. There was no one at the beach when we got there. The waves were quite big and the current seemed to be too strong to swim

Worth the walk!!! Perfect paradise untouched beach. Totally secluded if you go in the afternoon. Before 4pm there are a couple catamarans that come with tourists and there are umbrellas up. The walk is long, about 30-40 min but totally worth it and shady for the most part. We saw a few friendly people along the way who helped us figure out how to get there. Make sure to bring your water, sunscreen and repellent as the path is long. We snorkeled here as well but saw many more fish at Playa Entega.

One of the best beaches I've been to! Secluded, away from the town, but not that much that it makes it difficult to go there. You need to take a taxi or arrive with your car and leave by the road, then it is around 20-40 min walk to the beach. Depending on where you leave the car it is either the "educational" path with bird watching spots or a basic road that only authorized ppl can use. Be careful as apart from birds you can meet other animal, I saw a group of 10-15 wild boars! The beach itself is perfect, small waves of crystal water, but sometimes strong current underwater, so watch out. It goes deeper that you cannot feel the bottom in about 2-5 meters already, so might not be good for children. Sometimes the boats come, and some of them stop to let ppl get on the beach for a while. I really recommend it, make sure to take lots of water and food. There are some palapas so you can hide from the sun as well, but if you have your umbrella, take it.

Beach just for watching, not for swimming (strong currents). The road to the beach is absolutely unmarked, and where there are signs they are ambiguous. Not worth it! A complete waste of time!

Great experience. Rented a boat. Visited virgin beaches with black sand. Caught a fish. Took tons of photos! Take a snack with you...

Although we never touched land, this was where we went snorkeling from a boat. I was amazed at the amount of coral and wildlife in this area. I had no clue what was under the surface of the water. I would’ve guessed sand, but it was rocky, and lots of coral. Wildlife all over this ecosystem. I do recommend not taking a tour but maybe a water taxi or a boat to this area and exploring it on your own. We also saw a humpback whale and it’s calf in the water here! Amazing trip!

Incredible beautiful beaches and bays. The water is beautiful and so clean and blue. There are a couple of bays that are nice and secluded and others full of social life and delicious food.

Beautiful beaches, people and services

This huge national park is full of interesting animals and vegetation. If you don't want to walk through it, you can still see it from all the surrounding beaches, many of which are actually in the park!

Very nice. This is not a tourist attraction. It is the real thing - a preserve. It is best visited by boat. There are foot pathes and not many roads. Great beaches and a lot of wildlife.

Beautiful resort and beach. Great food. Water temp perfect. Definitely would return.

It's beautiful but you have to be very careful with the ocean. And it is very expensive to buy food on the beach.

The Bays are incredible! My problem: Today we took a snorkeling tour with the Fiestas Catamaran, and our guide chipped away with a knife on the coral to make fish come out. It was very disturbing to witness, and is one of the reasons the coral is no longer vibrant. He also grabbed a puffer fish, coral, and sea urchins for photo-ops and I don’t believe this kind of behaviour should be allowed at a “protected eco park”…Please try to work on educating the guides/ships to protect your gorgeous marine life. When I went previously with WestJet excursions, they were very respectful and ensured we all wear reef-safe sunscreen.

Nice beaches, we sailed all around the bay Bahias. Snorkeling is a must do.

What an incredible experience from 1st contact to post dive. Alejandro was very quick with communication and was easy to set up the dive. We had 8 divers all at different levels from those who had never dove to those that have open water certificates, Alejandro and his crew were amazing with all. He and his crew were super knowdelable not only about Scuba but also the area and terrain. He was easy to find, made the dive and equipment easy for us, post dive even had fresh fruit avaliable for us. We would 100% dive with him again.

We enjoyed our dives with Alex and his son! Diving equipment, pick up and drop off, and pictures are all included in the price given on their website and I found this to be the best deal in the area when I researched all the local dive shops. We saw plenty of fish, eels, starfish, turtles, an octopus (first time for me and we used to scuba in Belize every year), and spotted eagle rays.

Knowledgeable instructor! He suits the dives for your skill level and wastes no time 🙂. Originally was aiming to do a couple of dives but ended up doing loads and a course🤣. Night diving was amazing with illuminesance and we experienced a number of mini caves. Photos and videos were taken and give at no charge 😍 Highly recommended.

Diving with Alex and his sons was a pleasure. He is very experienced and always takes care, that you feel well and save. He is super calm and has a lot of knowledge about the sea life. Although the visibility wasn't good, we saw so many nice animals. Especially a wide range of rays, so beautiful! I won't forget that tiny yellow nudibranch!

I had the best time diving with Alejandro! The two dive sites we went to were amazing! Saw so many eagle rays and different marine life. They even took us for a closer look at some whales in the boat. He’s very knowledgeable about the area and I love that it’s a family business. I definitely recommend diving with him when you come to Huatulco!

I loved the experience. Alex and his son are extremely courteous and knowledgeable. Alex was a great teacher and very patient. He did a really good job at making us feel secure and that we enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommend them.

We dived for 2 days with Alejandro and his sons. We had a great experience. Alejandro is an excellent dive master. He is passionate about diving and conscientious about the environment. He knows the sites incredibly well and spots lots of interesting marine life. His boys were super helpful and took great care to make sure we were comfortable. All the gear was in great shape.

Perfect diving session with Alejandro and his sons. They always making sure you're well and comfortable, helping with everything. You can feel this is a family business not a big diving center. Alejandro knows a lot of spots and you can feel he is passionate about his job! We saw many fish in big groups, a turtle, sea snake and more. Thanks again!!
