Oaxaca Travel Agent Expert

With firsthand experience living in Puerto Escondido, I can tell you it's the perfect destination for adventure, culture, and relaxation. From its stunning beaches to its vibrant local traditions, Puerto Escondido offers a unique experience that combines the best of both worlds.

As someone who spent time immersing myself in the local culture, I know the ins and outs of this coastal gem. I can guide you to the best surf spots—trust me, it's not all about Zicatela! For beginners, I highly recommend Carrazallio and La Punta. Whether you're learning to ride your first wave or perfecting your skills, these beaches are ideal for all levels. Plus, I’ll show you how to get around like a local, including navigating the collectivos (local buses) to make sure you’re always in the right place at the right time.

When it comes to food, Puerto Escondido is a paradise for your taste buds. As a fan of authentic Mexican cuisine, I had my fill of incredible breakfasts—think chilaquiles topped with sour cream and avocado. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the fruit—it’s unlike anything you’ve ever tasted. I can direct you to the best local spots for fresh, flavorful meals.

Beyond the beaches and food, Puerto Escondido’s charm extends to its artistic community. I lived near an art gallery and studio where I got to paint alongside the talented owner. The vibrant local art scene is something that truly inspired me, and I’m excited to share some of the best local artists with you. If you're into creativity, this is the place to explore and find your own artistic flow.

The culture is rich, and the connection to nature is profound. I had the opportunity to experience plant medicine in San José del Pacífico and the magical, free-spirited energy of Zipolite. With my experience, I can also help you connect with the local traditions, whether it's participating in a sound bath, burning copal for spiritual cleansing, or savoring a homemade mole. Every part of Puerto Escondido was grounding, nourishing, and deeply connected to the earth.

Whether you’re looking to surf, immerse yourself in local culture, or simply unwind, I can curate a Puerto Escondido experience tailored to your interests and needs. Let me help you discover the magic of this place!
