Puerto Escondido Travel Guide

I consider Puerto Escondido (pwer-toh es-cohn-dee-doh) the best overall beach value in Mexico, and it retains the same casual beach feel that's drawn people here for decades. Although it has long been known as one of the world's top surf sites, today it's broadening its appeal. Think alternative therapies, great vegetarian restaurants, hip nightlife, awesome hotel and dining values, and some of the best coffee shops in Mexico. It's a place for those whose priorities include the dimensions of the surf break (big), the temperature of the beer (cold), the strength of the coffee (espresso), and the optimal tanning angle. The young and very aware crowd that comes here measures time by the tides, and the pace is relaxed. Read More
