Some of the swimmable and most beautiful beaches you can visit here are Lover’s Beach, Chileno Beach and Santa María Beach. Snorkeling, scuba diving and private excursions are some activities that you can enjoy.

Something that we really love about Los Cabos is that there are plenty of fun activities!

PLAYA DEL CARMEN: SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS OR SHARKS

Playa del Carmen beach is an excellent destination for a bachelor party group due to its endless list of adventurous activities and attractions. One of the top attractions in the area is XCaret, a theme park that offers over 50 attractions, including underground rivers, swimming pools, and aquariums filled with marine life. For the daring individuals, swimming with dolphins or sharks is an option. There are also shows like the Papantía flyers and México Espectacular.

If you are looking to explore beyond the theme parks, Cozumel Island is just a 45-minute ferry ride away. The island boasts beautiful beaches with white sand and strong waves, perfect for surfing. There are also parks and archaeological areas, with Punta Sur being one of the best diving spots in the world.

Dont’ miss their Fifth Avenue, a pedestrian street close to the beach, is perfect for shopping and dining. Visitors can find everything from large stores to Mayan handicrafts, textiles, and tequila. At night, the intersection with Avenida 12 comes alive with bars and restaurants.

PUERTO ESCONDIDO: UNLEASH YOUR INNER SURFER IN A COZY TOWN

Puerto Escondido, a small city located on the coast of Oaxaca, is a hidden gem that promises heart-pumping outdoors activities like surfing. Unlike other tourist destinations, this small surf town has not yet been affected by mass tourism, so you won’t find any sterile resorts or cruise crowds.

If you’re an experienced surfer, challenge yourself to ride the famous surf breaks at Playa Zicatela, where expert surfers from around the world come to catch the big waves. If you’re new to surfing, you can learn about the gentle waves at La Punta. And for the ultimate adrenaline rush, take on some of the biggest waves in the region.

Aside from surfing, explore the natural beauty of the surrounding lagoons and mangroves on kayak tours or go bird watching with your buddies. Take a tour to the Lagunas de Chacahua National Park, where you can hike through dense jungle and swim in beautiful lagoons. And for a unique bachelor party adventure, head to nearby Mazunte to learn about ancient fishing customs and indulge in traditional swordfish dishes.

Puerto Escondido may not be as ideal for a bachelor party as Tulum due to its smaller size and less developed nightlife scene. While Puerto Escondido does offer a legendary nightlife scene with bohemian bars, seafood restaurants, and friendly nightclubs, cities like Tulum have a more vibrant and diverse party scene with a wider range of options and larger venues.
