Huatulco (pronounced wah-TOOL-co), centered around the town of La Crucecita, is a tourist development in Mexico. It is located on the Pacific coast in the state of Oaxaca. Huatulco's tourism industry is centered around its nine bays thus the name Bahias de Huatulco but has since been unofficially shortened to simply Huatulco.
Huatulco is actually made up of a series of nine bays and numerous small coves stretching along 26 kilometers of jagged coastline, including 36 white sandy beaches. The most centrally located bay is Bahía de Santa Cruz, which is just south La Crucecita. It is also the center of commercial and tourist activities, with a large pier where yachts and cruise ships dock.
Green Destination
Huatulco has been awarded the Green Globe certification, and it is the only resort in Mexico to receive this prestigious award.
Earth Check is the worldwide benchmarking and certification system for the travel and tourism industry across the triple bottom line of economic, social and environmental management.
