Luxury holidays in Puerto Escondido

When to go

Sunny, dry days mark November to April, but surf bums will like May to October for prime wave-riding conditions.

Getting there

• Planes

  Regional connections and some flights from the States touch down at Puerto Escondido International Airport, which is roughly 15 minutes’ drive from the town and its beaches.

• Automobiles

  Opt for two wheels instead of four by renting a scooter, a nifty way to take in the coastline’s coves. Otherwise, leave the driving to someone else with taxis or transfers.
