Bahia Chuenque

May 13-14, 2013

We only stayed here one night, but it is a popular anchorage because its near Puerto Escondido for convenience, but not IN Puerto Escondido. It’s a north-facing bay just to the north of Puerto Escondido. I did kayak to shore and walk around a bit, and that’s when I snapped these photos. In the guidebook, the bay is called Bahia Chuenque, but I never heard it called that. Usually, it is called Juncalitoville, because the beach where there are some residences is called Playa Juncalito.
