Guide to virgin beaches: Playa del Órgano Part 1

Hello traveler! We hope you are enjoying your vacation. We know that upon your arrival you may be expecting a quiet and relaxing vacation. In our beautiful tourist destination there are 36 different beaches, many of them are quiet beaches and visitors have very little information about them. Therefore, here we will tell you which ones they are and how you can visit them, all of this recommended by our Ocean Travel team.

Those of us who live in Huatulco enjoy the beaches that are less crowded by people, that is why they are secret places that we visit to have a quiet moment, away from the center of La Crucecita. For this we have prepared some recommendations so that your visit to this paradise is as good and calm as possible.

Before starting our journey, we recommend bringing a beach umbrella, speaker, beach chairs, garbage bags to collect all our garbage and, with that, be ready for our transfer.

Our next stop will be the closest store to be able to buy snacks and drinks that we crave due to the hot climate of Huatulco. Remember to also use sunscreen and stay hydrated, as many beaches we will recommend do not have palapas or shops nearby.

Now that we are completely ready with our things, we have different options to choose from, which are perfect for enjoying the whole day with family, partner or friends. Stay tuned in the coming weeks, as we will be recommending beaches that are little known to outsiders throughout the year.

First Beach:

Playa Órgano: Located in the paradisiacal destination of Huatulco, Oaxaca, it is a hidden gem that is distinguished by its natural beauty and relaxed atmosphere. This beach, with crystal-clear waters and fine sand, is perfect for those looking to enjoy the serenity of the Pacific Ocean.

The name of the beach comes from a rock formation that, when viewed from certain angles, resembles a musical organ, adding a unique and picturesque touch to the landscape. Playa El Órgano is surrounded by hills and tropical vegetation, which makes it even more special and isolated, providing a quiet environment away from the hustle and bustle. It is a place where you can enjoy nature at its best, without the large crowds that usually characterize other, more well-known beaches.

The sea at El Órgano is an intense blue and its waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling, with a rich marine life that includes colorful fish and underwater rock formations. It is a very suitable beach for those who enjoy the tranquility of the sea, since the waves are generally gentle, although there can sometimes be some current, which also makes it an excellent place for those more experienced in diving.

Access to the beach is a little more complicated than other more popular beaches in the region, but this exclusivity only adds to its charm. Upon reaching Playa El Órgano, we have to walk approximately 10 minutes on a path, terrain without climbs or descents. The interesting thing is that, the closer you get to the beach, you see how the flora changes compared to the entrance. It can be reached via a boat ride from Bahías de Huatulco, which also offers a unique experience, with panoramic views of the coast and its cliffs.

Playa El Órgano is an ideal refuge for those looking to disconnect from routine, surrounded by intact nature and a clean, calm sea. Its natural beauty, its relaxed atmosphere and its isolation make it a perfect destination to enjoy a perfect day in paradise.
