Plunge into a series of cascading waterfalls deep in the Sierra Sur jungle, swimming in crystalline pools beneath 25-metre falls. A certified naturalist guide brings the Oaxacan highlands to life — this is Huatulco's single most spectacular inland landscape.
What to expect
The journey begins with a scenic 45-minute drive into the Sierra Sur foothills, where the air cools and coffee plantations flank the road. Your certified guide leads you through lush jungle trails to three tiers of the Copalitilla falls, each with its own natural plunge pool perfect for swimming. Howler monkeys and tropical birds are frequent companions along the trail. The private format allows for a leisurely picnic stop before the return drive.
Good to know
All-aboard is typically 17:00–18:00; this half-day excursion (5 hrs total) returns comfortably with buffer time. Pre-book directly via the guide's Tripadvisor contact to secure a private slot. Wear water shoes and bring a dry bag for valuables.
