People come to Salina Cruz to get the best waves of their lives, and yes, chances you will score, but in the down time we do offer other activites in and around Salina Cruz.
Go for day hikes up to the secret water fall and swimming hole to cleanse off the saltwater, take a ponga out for world class fishing for the day, explore the uncharted coast for new zones to surf and beaches to comb.
Don't forget that Oaxaca is home to the proudest people in all of Mexico! The Oaxacans have some of the strongest culture in the world, still speaking dialects that originated from their ancestors hundreds and hundreds of years prior to the arrival of the Spaniards. Take an afternoon to checkout the local scene, and if you are lucky you may find your self dancing in one of Oaxaca's famous festivals that happen each year.
Oaxaca City is 3 hours from Salina Cruz, where you will find one of Mexico's most beautiful cities, as well as the amazing ruins of Monte Albán which is one of Central Mexico’s greatest tourist attractions. The ruin complex is situated on a high, man-made plateau with a breathtaking view. The land is very dry, giving the ruins a sun-baked, haunted look. The complex is large, so if you’re going to visit, be sure to dedicate at least two hours to do so.
Please let us know your interests when you make your reservation. If you would like to fish during your stay at Las Palmeras Surf Camp, give us the heads up and we will make arrangements to have one of our local guides take you out to their favorite places to fish.
