Bahía Cacaluta

15° 43.4′ N · 96° 9.7′ W

A wild, undeveloped bay inside Huatulco National Park, named from the Zapotec for 'black bird', where migratory birds stop each year.

Practical

Position is the OpenStreetMap centroid of the Bahía de Cacaluta. Part of the national park's marine zone, so no fishing or collecting and no anchoring on coral. No cruiser anchoring report was found for this edition: depth, holding and swell protection are unverified, so treat it as a settled-weather day stop and sound carefully. Organo and Chachacual, each a few miles away, have current cruiser reports.

Best for

A wild national-park bay for a calm-day visit
