Bahías de Huatulco Snorkeling Travel Tips

  • Discover Huatulco's 30-plus beaches, some large, others little more than a patch of sand in a rocky nook.
  • Take advantage of a cordoned-off snorkeling area at Playa La Entrega on the western side of Bahía Santa Cruz. It's reachable by boat or car and has food shacks, a restroom, and snorkel rentals.
  • Explore other snorkeling spots including Bahía San Augustín and Isla Cacaluta—both have huge coral plates and abundant sea life.
  • Experience the truly remote beaches of Playa La India, west of Bahía Santa Cruz and accessible only by boat.
