Home Beaches Playa Arrocito Playa Arrocito by Brent May February 1, 2014 by Brent May 6.2K 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. The beach itself is surrounded by rock formations, acting as natural wave breaks. It is the perfect location for snorkeling or diving. You can a restaurant on the beach and some families sell oysters on the half shell, shrimp cocktails, tacos and other Mexican fare under shaded palapas. Parking is located on the small hill, and to get to the beach, visitors must walk down a small staircase. Enjoy a day at Playa Arrocito during your stay along the Oaxaca coast and enjoy the beauty of this relaxing beach. arrocitobeaches of huatulcohuatulco beachesplaya arrocitopunta arrocito 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail Brent May Brent May is the GM and Founder of Mexico Living.

Not interested in Condos at this time. Leah has sent us a few listings in Salchi. What else do you have? Separate quarters for caretaker/rental income would be a bonus. Big Views would be nice, too. We will be there end of February. Thank you in advance. Oh. Price MAX is $450,000. Reply Leave a Comment Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
