Hidden beaches in Mexico: wild swimming, fishing villages, secret coves

Mexico has beaches that stay away from the crowds of common tourist spots. They stretch from the sheltered bays of Quintana Roo, where sea turtles come to lay eggs, to the quiet coasts of Baja California Sur. These places keep their natural feel: clear waters, coral reefs filled with colorful fish, and the daily rhythm of local fishermen. To get to many of these beaches, you need to take a boat or walk along a trail, making them places only the truly curious travel to. In the south of the country, near Jalisco and Guerrero, other beaches remain wild. They offer white or gray sandy shores lined with limestone rocks or rainforests. Small fishing villages along the coast stay authentic: the residents sell their catch directly on the sand, and seafood restaurants serve fresh catches. There are no large hotel complexes or busy coastal roads. Most visitors here are looking for quiet and nature, away from the busy seaside resorts.
