213. Zipolite, Mexico
Do you ever dream of going somewhere where you’re totally cut off from society? Somewhere where there is literally nothing except beach, ocean, hut and some places to eat? Well here’s your spot on the Pacific Coast Zipolite feels completely cut off from the world. There is literally nothing to do here besides walk on the beach, play in the ocean, eat, drink and watch the sun set… It’s not a high end beach destination but a sweet ‘off-the-beaten-track’ type spot perfect for a day or two of doing nothing with your loved one.
139. Oaxaca, Mexico
Oaxaca is a beautiful colonial town in Southern Mexico… not preserved in a Disney-land fashion like many colonial towns but a bit grittier, which was something I really loved about it. This is a place of cobblestone streets and beautifully decrepit colonial architecture. A place of vibrant colors, lively markets and mariachi musicians. The region itself is known for chocolate and the town proper does not disappoint. Dappled with lovely street side restaurants and market stands filled with Oaxacan hot chocolate and cheese and savory mole… the food here is fantastic. Wander the streets, explore the market, sit in the town square and sip on some tequilla - a lovely romantic afternoon!
109. Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico
Puerto Escondido, translated as the “Hidden Port”, is a great, unassuming, backpacker/surfer destination in western Mexico. Not an untouched paradise, this coastal area is chalked full of fun, romantic things to do. Of course there’s always laying on the beach, swimming, watching the sun set… If you and your sweetie are surfers this place has amazing waves. If you are not - rent some motorbikes and explore the town, west of the beaches is a beautiful, peaceful lagoon full of interesting birds. Go deep sea fishing or just relax in one of the beach-side restaurants with some ice cold beer and delicious Mexican fare.
