An important ecological area, with its dense jungles and swamplands, this bay on the open sea offers many opportunities to enjoy unspoiled nature. Rent a boat at Santa Cruz Beach to ride here and enjoy your day. This beautiful bay was one of the settings for the movie "Y tu mamá también", one of the hits of the famous director Alfonso Cuarón. Of course, the reason for being part of this film is that it is one of the most instagrammable places in the destination, so if you want to be a success on social networks, this is one of the best places to take photos.

This bay does not have tourist services, since it is part of the Huatulco National Park. However, you will have the chance to enjoy incredible, almost virgin landscapes.

It is a place to relax, enjoy nature and swim in its crystal clear waters.

In addition, you can visit the El Zanate lagoon, with huge mangrove roots where a wide variety of birds inhabit.

The beaches in this bay are:

Playa Cacaluta

At Cacaluta, the deep, blue green warm waters and strong waves provide an exciting opportunity for water sports, but also make it necessary to exercise the utmost caution.

Playa Arroyo

Watch the shades and hues of the water change with the reflections of the exuberant vegetation, and admire the sea birds.
