Playa Brujas, Mazatlan

Playa Brujas, Mazatlan One of the best beaches in Mexico is Playa Brujas. Just a short 20 minute drive from the beating heart of the city of Mazatlan, Playa Brujas is perched majestically on the coast. The stunning waves make this a sanctuary and a haven for surfers who can enjoy the swell all year round. There’s also a restaurant on the beach which apparently serves sublime lobster dinners very cheaply.

Bonfil Beach, Acapulco

Considered also to be highly underrated, the beach is way off the beaten track, far from the crowds and busloads of tourists. Here you get to chill out like a local, indulge in a bit of horseback riding, take long, lazy naps under the soft swaying palm trees and enjoy balmy evenings next to a beach fire.

Playa Ventanilla

Playa Ventanilla Playa Ventanilla has the most beautiful backdrop of hills covered in jungle. In Oaxaca-Chiapas Province, Playa Ventanilla is one of the quietest surfing beaches in Mexico but no less fabulous. It is hard to find which is part of its charm, and the reason it has remained one of the secret, hidden gems of Mexican beaches. It’s about 15-20 minutes down a dirt track outside of the secluded village of Ventanilla.
