The name of the city had roots in the legend of a woman who escaped her captors and hid in the area. The Nahuatl word for this area was Zicelta, meaning “place of large thorns”. Today, Puerto Escondido refers to the area’s most famous beach. Puerto Escondido is one of the most important tourist attractions on the Oaxacan coast. The area is a relaxed medium-sized beach town with a population of around 45.000 known for its excellent surfing. Over the years, it has grown in size and is popular with ex-pats and surfers, but has managed to avoid huge development and all-inclusive resorts. Some famous locations in Puerto Escondido include; Playa Carrizalillo, Playa Zicatela, Playa Bacocho, Playa Principal, Playa Puerto Angelito y Manzanillo, Playa Coral and several others.
