Discover Mazunte

Photos, information and travel guides for your stay.

Mazunte is a small beach town on the Pacific coast of Oaxaca, Mexico. It is located 22 km southwest of San Pedro Pochutla on coastal Highway 200. Mazunte is located some 10 km to the west of Puerto Ángel and just about 1 km from San Agustinillo and 264 km south of the capital of Oaxaca. There are two etymologies for the name. Some sources state that "Mazunte" is derived from a Nahuatl phrase, "maxotetia" which means "please deposit eggs here." However, older residents of the community state that it is from the word “mizontle,” used by locals to refer to a crab species that used to be very abundant in the area.

Mazunte is located on the Pacific coast and boasts beautiful beaches with crystal-clear waters, perfect for swimming, surfing, or just relaxing under the sun. The town itself is very laid back, with a bohemian vibe that will make you feel right at home. During the day, you can explore the surrounding areas, visit the Turtle Center, or take a hike to Punta Cometa, a scenic lookout point with breathtaking views of the ocean.

At night, Mazunte comes alive with its vibrant nightlife, with live music and performances at local bars and restaurants. You can also take part in a traditional Temazcal ceremony, a pre-Hispanic steam bath believed to have healing properties.
