Travel Guide

Cool little town next to the sea in Mexico. Very chilled out, not over touristy at all. Great sea life and beach (and we are not beach people!) Lots of dolphins and jumping sea rays on our boat trip.

Offering just as spectacular a sunset view as the more popular Punta Cometa, this overlook is more easily reached. The trail starts at the top of the hill on the road to Mermejita. Take a left towards Punta Cometa and then a right at the sign for Punta Pescador. #sunset #nature #Oaxaca #mazunte

The best sunset you'll get to see in Oaxaca.
