The coastline between the cities of Huatulco and Puerto Escondido is made up of many bays and inlets, divided by rocky outcroppings into the Pacific.
On this stop, we explored the bay and coastline of San Agustinillo.
Spectacular rocks and cliffs dot the coastline and depending on the tide, you can climb the rocks and watch the countless pelicans that frequent them.
The beaches in each bay and inlet vary in terms of the type of sand and shells and way that the beach drops off into the ocean. This one had a more gentle drop off, and the kids started their shell collections.
Some are of the bays are welcoming to beginning swimmers while others require strong swimming skills, and still others are favored by surfers due to the high rolling surf. Many time, swimming conditions vary based on the tide and weather.
While we didn't swim on this stop, the kids had great fun climbing the rocks and watching the waves pound into them, rolling over the rocky outcroppings and creating little waterfalls and other wonderful occurrences.
