| This is a beautiful long beach about 1400' with coarse white sands. The waves are smaller but the current feels strong and this beach is most easily accessible by water unless you're into very long drives down bumpy dirt roads. This is one of the two beaches inside Cacaluta Bay it is also part of the Riscalillo Park Huatulco. The other beach is Playa El Arroyo, connected just to the East. There is a nearby Island (Isla Mariana) with several coral reefs. These reefs have lots of rock formations for the local marine life making this a popular dive spot. There is also a small restaurant (Palapa Cacaluta - Seafood) on the beach just a short distance from the shoreline. |      |

Playa Arrocito
Playa Arrocito is located just before Tangolunda Bay in the resort town of Huatulco. Only 300 foot long, this great little playa was named as a result of the sand that looks like small grains of rice. Its name comes from that feature. The sand is very different from other beaches of Huatulco, it is a little thicker with small shell fragments mixed with rocks. Although not a large beach, is a favorite in Huatulco and is surrounded by luxury hotels, villas, single family homes and condos with spectacular ocean views. Read more about Playa Arrocito…
