Introducing Puerto Ángel

Thirteen kilometers south of Pochutla, the small fishing port, naval base and beach town of Puerto Ángel (pwer-toh ahn-hel) straggles around a picturesque bay between two rocky headlands. Many travelers prefer to stay out on the beaches a few kilometers west at Zipolite, San Agustinillo or Mazunte, but the marginally more urban Puerto Ángel also offers some good accommodations, along with its own little beaches and activities, and easy transportation to Zipolite.
