Hi I’m local from puerto escondido, but I spent most of my time travelling, at least 8 months per year, I love to go out, eat and sleep :) I love animals, I love to go to the beach, pool, play some basketball or volleyball

People beware of the police! The locals are mostly friendly and helpful, they don't agree with what the police are pulling off. The police robbed one of our roommates off his wallet and phone. He did not get hurt. Anyhow the police seem to try to sneak drugs into your bag so they can scam you off money to let you go. Please be careful. Also usage of drugs is illegal and police will give you a penalty for it and strip you off your money. Beware.
Posted: December 29, 2024Experienced: June, 2024I really liked Puerto Escondido, these are the beaches that I would recommend: Playa Coral: beach accessible via hotel 50 pesos (with drink) or 100 pesos (buffet + drink). Very pleasant, with few people but lots of waves. There's also access to the hotel swimming pools. Playa Bacocho: beach next to Playa Coral, accessible via the rocks. Not much shade, but a beautiful beach with fewer waves. Difficult to find the exit, as some beach clubs won't let you out. Playa Angelito / Manzanillo: angled beaches, but we went there on a public holiday, so it was impossible to get in because it was so crowded. I think it could be nice on weekday mornings. Quiet beach and clear water Playa Carrizalillo: We went here because the Angelito / Manzanillo beaches were too crowded. Small beach with more shade, perfect for swimming. Stairs with lots of steps to get there. Playa Punta Zicatela: best place to stay, powerful waves. Very cool for watching the sunset and playing volleyball.
