Extra Tips for Travelers in Puerto Escondido
A few practical things to know to make your stay on the Oaxacan coast stress-free when it comes to healthcare.
Always carry your passport
You will need it to purchase prescription medication at pharmacies in Mexico.
Dengue prevention is essential
Puerto Escondido is a dengue-endemic zone. Use DEET repellent, wear long sleeves at dusk, and sleep under a mosquito net. Contact us immediately at the first signs of high fever or severe body aches — early treatment matters.
Surf injuries — treat early
Zicatela’s powerful waves cause frequent wipeouts — coral cuts, reef abrasions, and ear infections from seawater are very common. These can get infected quickly in tropical water. Consult us early for antibiotic treatment if needed.
Don’t drink tap water
Tap water in Puerto Escondido is not safe to drink. Always use bottled water — for drinking and brushing teeth. Traveler’s diarrhea is the most common reason tourists consult us here.
Tropical sun is intense
The Oaxacan coast gets extreme UV year-round. Sunburn, heatstroke, and dehydration happen fast — especially during surf sessions. Use high-SPF sunscreen, wear a rash guard, and stay hydrated.
Official health guidance
For official travel health information for Mexico, visit the Secretaría de Salud or your country’s travel advisory page before your trip.
