Out of this world Oaxaca

Oaxaca is a region in Southern Mexico that can give travellers a city break and ample beach time all in one trip. The vast majority of action takes place around Oaxaca city which hosts festivals all year round including the famous Day of the Dead parade in November. You can marvel at museums, monasteries and markets all day long.

You can also pursue more relaxing activities like sunbathing at one of Oaxaca's gorgeous beaches on the Pacific Coast. The resorts on this coast are quieter and a bit less-developed than other Mexican coasts. Perfect for a trip with purpose.

More and more travellers are heading to Oaxaca but it still feels like somewhere that can offer a different experience to the rest of Mexico with its ingrained colonial and indigenous heritage.

• exploring the nearby Sierra Norte mountains and its quaint villages

• visiting the tropical coast with its stunning beaches and array of wildlife

• checking out the local arts and crafts as well as cultural festivals Oaxaca city has
  to offer 

• taking in historical churches such as the beautiful Santa Domingo

• seeing the petrified waterfalls of Hierve el Agua 

Cultural crafts and beautiful beaches

Oaxaca can be described as a fairly laid-back destination. Though it still offers plenty to see and do both in and around the city. For surfing enthusiasts, the tropical coast beckons and for colonial heritage, a wander around the city and checking out indigenous culture is a must.

Though there are some larger all inclusive resorts, our travel specialists recommend staying in one of the smaller boutique hotels or apartments. This means getting out and about and visiting some of the wonderful incredible restaurants and Mezcalerias in this great city.
