Really fun trip to Huatulco and Oaxaca


Just returned from a jaunt to Huatulco and Oaxaca – non-stop sights – lots of fun:

Entrega Beach, Huatulco – great snorkeling



Barra Copalita estuary – Rosette Spoonbills, great white heron, flocks of egrets, turtles and much more:



La Bocana beach – this guy threw his net once and caught up a bunch of sardines – shared with the pelican:






Marimba band with trumpets – en fuego! Note the small boy on drums



Monte Alban “Hall of Dancers”






Zocalo color



Plantains! Had these twice - yum



300 AD Zapotec figurine of woman giving birth



Rug weaver



Hierve de Agua – stunning landscape

We went to La Bocana beach there too! What a hoot! Your photos are wonderful and made me want to return right away...the colors, the smells, the landscape and THE BEACHES are simply spectacular.




Come visit La Bocana

Blanca, did you get a mud bath from the ladies at La Bocana beach? I also had one of my most memorable meals at the restaurant at the end of the street, left side - fish fillet with garlic - open air, view of the ocean.

We have a condo (for sale) in Puerto Escondido just "north" of where you were. It's a great stretch of coastline. Very inexpensive for almost everything. A LOT cheaper than Baja for some reason, an example; 2 orders of 5 rolled tacos with sour cream and avocado, and two drinks were the equivalent of $1.02 USD...total! Just amazing. This is at the Mercado food stands in Puerto. Great music too along the beach bars from classic rock to blues.

The spearfishing there just isn't up the level I like in Baja and boat ownership is a PITA, or I'd be there forever. This is the view from our condo.
