Traveling from Oaxaca to Huatulco? I have a very detailed guide that outlines all your Oaxaca City to Huatulco Transportation Options , so head there to see the ways you can get to this amazing Mexico beach town .

What’s the best place to stay in Huatulco Mexico?

When deciding on Huatulco accommodations , the first question you must ask is if you want to stay on the beach or in town.

If you want to stay right on the beach, there are a few distinct areas, but if you want to stay in town, opt for a place in La Crucecita.

🏝️ Staying on Huatulco Beach

There are a few areas on Huatulco Beach where you can stay. These include Bahía Tangolunda Bay , where you’ll find most of the Huatulco all-inclusive resorts and Bahía Santa Cruz , the beach closest to downtown Huatulco.

If you want to stay at an all inclusive Huatulco resort , Tangolunda is the place — and also one of the most beautiful and best beaches in Huatulco . If you want to stay in this area, opt for any of these great places:

• Dreams Huatulco Resort & Spa
• Barceló Huatulco Resort
• Camino Real Zaashila Huatulco

Huatulco vs Puerto Escondido: Which is better?

While Huatulco is popular with honeymooners, families and the 30s-50s demographic, Puerto Escondido might be better for the 20s-30s crowd, and anyone who wants to surf 🏄‍♀️

Also, if you want a lot of nightlife options, Puerto Escondido works better.

If Puerto Escondido sounds like it’s more up your alley, check out this Puerto Escondido travel guide to help you plan your trip.

Is Huatulco safe for travelers?

Huatulco is one of the safest places to travel in Mexico . It has low crime rates, friendly locals, and even the taxi drivers treat tourists fairly (this is not always the case).

As far as Huatulco Mexico safety, just take the same measures here as you would when traveling anywhere else on Earth.

If you want to network with locals to get a better feel for Huatulco before and during your visit, join some Facebook groups, like these:

Can you drink the water in Huatulco Mexico?

No — Unfiltered Mexico tap water isn’t safe for human consumption, not for locals and not for visitors. For a deep dive, check out Can You Drink the Water in Oaxaca?

What’s the best way to get around in Huatulco Mexico?

There’s not great public transportation and the city is quite spread out, so a Huatulco rental car is the best way to get around. You can also take taxis if you don’t rent a car.

🚗 renting a Car in Huatulco Mexico

As one of the safest cities in Mexico , you’ll be safe while driving in Huatulco Mexico. The streets are well-maintained and people are relatively calm drivers.

When it comes to Mexico rental cars, I recommend and also use Discover Cars . Their search tool checks both international companies and local Mexican companies so you get the best rates.

Are taxis safe in Huatulco?

For the vast majority of travelers, yes , you’ll be safe using taxis in Huatulco. You can use them to get from Point A to Point B, but some drivers will also negotiate a day rate for you, and they’ll take you all over town for the day.

🚌 Public Transportation in Huatulco Mexico

Huatulco public transportation is frankly, not great and not readily available. Also, unlike taxis, don’t expect bus drivers to speak English, so make sure you have at least basic Spanish to navigate Huatulco public transportation.

Also, if you do want to use public transport in Huatulco, make sure you have change and small bills to pay the driver — as many won’t make change for large bills.

Since I barely used the public transportation and buses in Huatulco, I’ll refer you to the best guide I’ve seen on the subject, How to Travel in Huatulco . It was written by Shev, one of my fellow Mexico bloggers .

What’s the best time to visit Huatulco Mexico?

Weather-wise, the best time to visit Huatulco is from November to March .

You’ll have no rain (or very little), low humidity, and no mosquitoes (or very few). With perfect weather, however, comes larger crowds and higher price tags.

🌡️ Huatulco Weather: Yearly Averages

If you’re traveling to Huatulco on a budget, you’ll want to visit during the slow summer season.

For the best value, but still nice weather, plan your visit during what’s called the “shoulder season,” a magical time right in-between the high season and low season in Huatulco.

• Huatulco Busy Season: November to March
• Huatulco Slow Season: May to September
• Huatulco Shoulder Season: October and April
• Huatulco Rainy Season: April to September

What’s the best time to see whales in Huatulco?

The Huatulco whale season runs from about November to April — but the best time to see them is from mid-December to March.

During this time, you can take this Huatulco boat tour and venture into the Pacific Coast to (hopefully 🤞) see everything from Pacific gray whales and orcas (killer whales) to humpback whales.

Is Huatulco worth visiting?

Yes — Huatulco Mexico is perfect for those who want to venture slightly off the beaten path in Mexico, but still enjoy resort amenities, beaches and modern conveniences.

It has great resorts, similar to Cancun , Cabo and Puerto Vallarta , but without the large crowds. Huatulco also has great tourism infrastructure, and is safe for tourists.

I recommend Huatulco for those who want to enjoy the beaches, nature and relaxation. It’s great for daytime activities, but limited in its nightlife, however, you’ll find plenty of top Huatulco nature and wildlife tours.

There are some bars in nearby La Crucecita (AKA downtown Huatulco Mexico), but even the bars at these best Huatulco resorts often close by 10pm.
