Brick Making
Unlike the modern industrial world, bricks are made by hand in rural Huatulco. See the process of how they are created, and try your own hand at it if you like.
Tapestry Making
Tapestry, blankets, rugs & more are made in Piedra de Moros. Watch the weaving process, and learn the art that has pretty much been forgotten in our modern world. You could even purchase a woven product to support the local business & have a great souvenir to bring home.
Huatulco Nopal Cactus Fields
The Nopal Cactus is a perfect crop for Huatulco. With it’s ability to survive in low moisture areas, it is a low maintenance crop that has many benefits. It is used in shampoos, salads, juices, beauty creams, and many other products.

Incredible Tours - Our amazing vacation to Huatulco was due to the tours we booked with Alfonso Gabriel of Best Huatulco Tours. His love of the country and communities was shown in... read more how Alfonso explained everything in detail to us. We first went on the Waterfall Tour, which started with a bumpy trek up through the mountains to a magnificent waterfall. The water was so cool and refreshing. He encouraged and assisted all of us to climb up through the cave and jump off into the pools below. Then we had the most incredible authentic Mexican lunch, that we are still talking about!
We next went on the Ecotour with Turtle Release. This was honestly the best experience of my life. Not only to have crocodiles coming up to our little boat, but to have the opportunity to learn and release baby Olive Ridley turtles to their new life into the ocean was something my family will never forget. This is a MUST DO in Huatulco with Alfonso.
We had such an amazing couple of tours, he also took us shopping and Mezcal tasting and to another MUST DO in La Crucecita...dinner at La Chicatana. Wow! What an incredible dinner. Everyone had something different, from local cuisine to honestly the best pizza ever! We were invited to actually share in a special experience of tasting the roasted Chicatana Ants. Again, another experience we will never forget!
In the short time we have got to know Alfonso, we feel he is a part of our family and hope to see him soon, either for another trip to Huatulco, or for him to come visit us in Vancouver Canada.
Book any tour with Alfonso, you will NOT be disappointed and will come away with memories you will never forget!
