And further South, way further--
Anyone been to Puerto Escondido? Just wondering. Like it?
We spent 3 weeks there in 2006, stayed at the Rockaway on Playa Zicatela, where all the area eccentrics gathered daily at the the pool bar for Hora Feliz - an education for innocents like us, to say the least.
Zicatela is a dangerous place to swim and there are few amenities right on the beach, and no shade. The other beaches closer to town were usually crowded. They close the main drag in Centro to vehicle traffic every evening. Wonderful beach at Playa Carrizalillo near town, but maybe 200 steps down (and up)to get there. Lots of good restaurants and hotels along the beach road at Zicatela. Temperature and humidity a tad higher than Zihua, prices a tad lower. We liked Puerto Escondido.
