We had a wonderful time with Anfibios in Huatulco! It was my first time diving in the ocean since…read morebeing certified and my dad's first time back diving after 20 years. We wanted an easy going dive center that could find us a calm location. The waters had been rough and the owner, Alex, was helpful in finding two good sites. We dove at Maguey Bay and La Entraga bay. Alex was especially wonderful with me as a new diver who was nervous once I got in the water. He led me around for the first while and stayed by my side while I got used to everything and settled in. He was very helpful giving pointers and advice to improve my diving. His son ran the boat above and was very efficient. Alex took the photos that I've attached here. These photos came with the price. We each paid under $90 which included everything: transport to and from our resort, equipment rentals, two tanks, pictures, fruit, and water. I would highly recommend this dive center to others. The owner and his son were great to have with us.

There is only one restaurant here, we picked a table and moved in for a few hours. We only ordered cerveza and papas fritas. A lady sells coconuts and fresh fruits, we like our coconuts chilled for a while, which she did for us. All reasonably priced. We met Miguel with a boat named Miranda. My wife approached him to ask about going to Playa San Augustin. Well, Miguel gave us a great offer! He picked the five of us up the next day at Playa Arrocito at 7am, proceeded straight out to sea for 45 minutes for some fishing. After I spent 30 minutes reeling in a 60lb sailfish we then headed back to towards 7 of the bays starting with Playa San Augustin. On the way we saw many sea turtles, even a mating pair. The favorite part for the whole family was spending 20 minutes boating around a Super Pod of dolphins! We stayed at Playa San Augustin for a couple of hours, hanging out at LaLa 's restaurant watching some local kids surf and swimming. Food was good but we thought a bit overpriced for the region. Saw six more bays and the blow hole on the way back to Santa Cruz where he dropped us off at 3pm. Whole trip cost was a fantastic 3000pesos plus tip. You can reach Juan Miguel at 0449581306541. We texted him through WhatsApp.

As a scuba diving neophyte, HDC provided a welcoming introduction to the underwater world…read more I have a friend who lives in Huatulco so she connected me with one of the co-owners, Anna, before we arrived in town for the week. Anna seemed welcoming and excited from the start and did a good job of outlining the options and pricing for my partner and I so that we could choose what was best for us. Given we were short on time (a week in Huatulco with lots of different plans besides diving) we opted for the Discovery course. Four hours total including an on-land instruction video and quiz, the boat ride to and from the dive site, the on-boat and the underwater lessons was the perfect amount of time. I finished feeling like I'd learned a lot but was not so drained from the morning so I felt ready to fill the afternoon with a second, more low key, activity. My partner and I had our instructor, another woman named Anna, to ourselves, which was great. The 2-1 ratio meant we both got lots of individual instruction. Anna was also very patient and encouraging with me as I was unexpectedly nervous once I got in the water with all my gear. She encouraged me to take it at my own pace while she went through some exercises with my partner and stayed close while they explored under water. I was able to join them after about 5-10 minutes and really enjoyed the rest of time exploring the coral and its colourful inhabitants. Its worth noting that there were a number of other divers of various skills levels on our boat going out with another guide from HDC and on their own, so I would say this is a great company to dive with no matter if you're a newbie or not. If you're looking to dive and you're in Huatulco, definitely check out HDC.

They were friendly and knowledgeable of surrounding areas. As a dive professional myself I make a point of diving everywhere I go just to see what there is to see. From nudibranchs to frog fish and zebra morays to giant morays reef octopus giant morays sea turtles (hawksbill and green) and oceanic manta rays (Manta birostris) the diving in Huatulco did not fail to impress. In short, it was wonderful! The boat was comfortable and new and even had a toilet aboard! My second day diving I was the only customer and Luca agreed to take me out into the blue -10 miles off shore- to a popular fishing spot where many Marlin and dorado had recently been caught. Unfortunately my gamble on the blue dive did not yield any Marlin but the visibility was spectacular and the experience unforgettable. If I'd had the time I'd gamble on a blue dive again. Diving in Huatulco can accommodate all levels of diver from professional to beginner to non diver (discover scuba diving or DSD). In my opinion it's well worth your time. I hope you enjoy!!

To me this is the best public beach in Hualtuco. Besides the snorkeling in clear, warm water there…read moreis great food and the beaches are not crowded. You can rent your snorkeling gear here but bring your own towels. It seems that most people come by excursion boat but there is also parking or you can just say to your taxi driver, "take me to the best beach". There are always taxis to take you back again. There is a new rule against having beach chairs on the beach but you can always sit oceanside at one of the restaurants and enjoy a cerveza and stuffed pineapple. (Seriously . . . . be sure to have one of these!)

After our wedding, my husband and I decided to rent a Catamaran to take all of our guests on a bay tour. We rented the Tequila Catamaran which took us all around Huatulco and dropped us off in a private virgin beach. Before heading to this private tour, the crew of the boat recommended all of our guests to rent snorkeling equipment from a small shop located inside the Bahia de Santa Cruz, which was really affordable. Something that I think is pretty funny about this port, is that they have a small gas station next to the water to fill up all of the small fishing boats that come in.

Next to the beach there´s a small plaza with a kiosk in the middle, in it there´s a little coffee shop with tables & chairs to sit it. Their coffee is amazing, organic, local produced and fresh everyday. We also tried the milkshakes, the best were coconut & vanilla. Since we stayed at a hotel a few meters away, every morning we would buy our coffee here and bring it to the hotel´s restaurant. There are some stores that sell everything from keychains, cups, t-shirts, swim suits, sandals & water toys for the kids. The only annoying thing is the restaurant employees, you´re 10 mts away fromt he beach but they´re all bothering you to choose their restaurant.
