Parque Nacional Huatulco

The protected area spans across 11,890 hectares, including coastal lagoons, estuaries, freshwater lakes, rivers, and marine environments along the Pacific coast.

The Mexican government established Parque Nacional Huatulco on July 24, 1998, under President Ernesto Zedillo's administration to protect indigenous ecosystems.

Local communities maintain traditional practices within the park boundaries, engaging in regulated fishing, hunting, and plant collection activities following established protocols.

Visitors can access the national park through water vessels departing from Santa Cruz marina, with guided tours available from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM daily.

The park contains five of Huatulco's nine bays: San Agustín, Chachacual, Cacaluta, Maguey, and Órgano, each featuring coral reefs and marine biodiversity.
