It features the best known beach, Playa Santa Cruz. La Crucecita is a small town inland from the beach that provides most support services, and Chahue lies between Santa Cruz and La Crucecita. Bahia Chahue features a marina and three principal beaches. The entire area has a "small town" feel to it and is rarely crowded.
To the west of Santa Cruz are bays and beaches that are less developed. Most of the area belongs to Huatulco's national park. It is the location of the most important coral communities of the Mexican Pacific and is open for scuba diving, bird watching, and hiking.
Prior to becoming a vacation destination, Huatulco was originally a little-known coffee growing area. There are a number of coffee plantations that are still in operation and that give tours. Other activities and attractions include golf courses, horse stables, tennis courts, marinas, trendy restaurants, and an ecological park. Although some may visit Huatulco for its magnificent beaches and opportunity for sun worshiping and sunbathing, there are countless opportunities for adventure including ecotours, water sports, fishing excursions, scuba diving among reefs and wrecks teeming with marine life, and jungle tours in the surrounding tropical rain forest. Huatulco also has several interesting towns nearby including the beach towns of Playa Angel, which features excellent beaches and waves; and Puerto Escondido, which also features stunning beaches and excellent surfing.
With sunshine 330 days per year and an average temperature of 28°C, Huatulco is a desirable and inviting Mexican destination. Come and rejuvenate amidst beauty and warmth.
