Oaxaca: Great Destinations

Paige Penland

This UNESCO World Heritage site, renowned for its cuisine, museums, and incredible fiestas, has been a top tourist destination for decades. Neighboring Zapotec ruins, traditional handicrafts, and grassroots ecotourism opportunities all entice the adventurous, while surfers and sun seekers head to the Oaxacan Riviera, a strand of Pacific beach towns between beautiful Bahías de Huatulco and Puerto Escondido. This is Mexico at its most authentic and impressive, a feast for the senses.

Paige Penland is a widely published travel writer and author of Costa Rica: Great Destinations Central America. She lives in Costa Rica.
