| About Hualtulco
The Bays of Huatulco (wa-TOOL-co) are actually
made up of a series of small bays and coves, including 35 beaches. We
believe that it is the most beautiful spot on the Pacific coast mainly
because of the many unspoiled beaches that stretch along the 18 miles
of jagged coastline that comprise the nine Bays of Huatulco. Each bay
has its own unique character. Some have several beaches which form little
pockets nestled into the towering cliffs, others are wide open to the
surf, and still others have coral reefs with crystalline water and numerous
species of tropical fish. Here it is possible to see giant sea turtles
and pods of dolphins. The foothills of the Sierra Madre del Sur Mountains
form a framework for each of the bays and are covered with an abundant
tropical foliage. It is truly an unspoiled tropical paradise where 70%
of the area has been designated as an ecological zone.
In addition to the spectacular natural beauty,
Huatulco has an exceptional level of infrastructure. FONATUR (a governmental
agency for the development of tourism) has made a major investment in
developing important elements of infrastructure such as paved roads, electricity,
water and sewage treatment. The commitment to maintaining the environment
here is so high that this is one of the few areas on the Pacific coast
where sewage (treated or otherwise) is not pumped out to sea. Discover
for yourself why Huatulco, this premier Eco-resort, is considered "the
best kept secret in Mexico!"
