Situated just down from Playa Zicatela, at the southeast end of the stretch of sand, is La Punta. If you want all the atmosphere of Zicatela but with waves safer for newbies, this is the beach for you. Aside from surf beginners, classes, and bodyboarders, you’ll regularly see runners getting their exercise along this beach as the sand is compact and ideal for a quick jog. What’s more, this beach has the best crepes and chocolate croissants in Puerto Escondido.
