iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
At the end of the Main Street that goes through Zicatela turn right and you’ll be at a small dirt parking lot right on the beach. This parking lot is right in front of an abandoned lot so no problem with camping overnight. This spot was far better than any other free spots listed on iOverlander in this area as it is quiet and away from the main drag. The police came and told us it’s okay to camp. Perfect spot for the dog to run around on the beach. Just beware, there is no shade so you will need to have your own source. And the best thing - there are NO BUGS!!
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Best spot around!!
Estuvimos 4 noches y súper tranquilo, la policía pasó y no nos dijo nada. estábamos muy cerca de un hotel 4 estrellas que tenía música en vivo por la noche. y pegados a la playa que no podes meterte pero es hermoso dormir al lado del mar.
lo super recomendamos. Nos gustó mucho más la zona de Punta Zicatela que Pierto
Great spot to park. Just so hot this time of year but hey, that’s the oaxaca coast. Nice and level.
Report Check-Inslept here 3 nights...great peaceful safe place
we were about 5 overlanders
found that place by chance and was not deceived at all! at the end of the Pirules street, turn left and you'll reach a dirt road. Ocean to your right and some abandoned lots on your left. Please try to stay clear of the houses further so owners don't report and keep it clean. Police are passing true regularly. Felt SUPER safe alone (even if you never are cause there is always someone there 😉)
Abarotes and restaurant at 2 min. walk.
We slept here one night ! So nice ! Sunset, sunrise, moonrise all beautiful ! 10 minutes from la punta.
Report Check-InAmazing wildcamping spot. Many, many overlanders lined up along the beach. 50m from beach at abandoned hotel. Feels totally safe with so many others and area in general. A little far from the actual bays, but walkable.
Possible with any vehicle, just small portion of dirt road from the mainroad. Strong cellservice, almost no bugs.

Camped here one night, no problem. Multiple Ioverlanders when we were here. Quiet and safe.
Report Check-InSafe place!! Many security guards from the hotel near to the spot, police around, we spend 4 nights there with our 24ft Motorhome without issues
Report Check-InStayed one night, arrived late and left early. Very quiet even on a Saturday night. Police passed by but did not bother us.
Report Check-InReally calm, we stayed one night but very calm, no one and you can jump to the water in one sec'
Report Check-InStayed for four nights. Cool breeze. Eventually moved on by very polite police.
police had actually driven past each day and waved!
It looks a little isolated but it’s illuminated and super quiet. Police patrol at night but didn’t talk to us.
There’s a bathroom and a minimarket next corner 💎
We came in at sunset. No bugs, no traffic, no police, quite. Only an earthquake (4,9) was shaking our rig ...
Report Check-InWe came late at night in Pto Escondido and drove around a little before deciding to make a stop here. T’was to late to ask anyone but no one bothered us. Calm et quiet at night.
