Puerto Escondido Beaches Tour: Mazunte, Zipolite & Ventanilla

Four beaches in one day, each one a different kind of coast

A full-day tour from Puerto Escondido to four beaches south of the city (Zipolite, Mazunte, Ventanilla and Punta Cometa) with a live guide in English or Spanish and air-conditioned transport.

The experience

The tour runs eight hours and covers four separate beaches, each one a different character. You get picked up in air-conditioned transport and driven south from Puerto Escondido to Zipolite first, where you can swim and spend time on the sand. From there the route moves to Mazunte, then Ventanilla, and finishes at Punta Cometa. A progression that lets you see how the coast changes rather than staying in one place all day.

A live guide travels with you and speaks English or Spanish, so you hear about what you're seeing instead of just passing through. The guide handles the stops and the timing, which means you're not navigating between beaches or figuring out where to go next. You can have a drink at one of the beach bars along the way and move at a pace that lets you actually get in the water and spend time at each one, not just photograph them from the van.

The vehicle is air-conditioned, which matters on a full day in the sun and heat. Public transportation runs in the area if you want to explore on your own time, but the tour includes the transport between all four stops. Children from age two travel on this tour, so families can book it as a group.
