Cascadas Mágicas de Copalitilla
A cluster of more than ten waterfalls and pools in the mountain forest, with swimming, horseback riding, and suspension bridges. A popular inland day trip from Huatulco.
The Magic Waterfalls lie in the mountains north of Huatulco, where a tributary of the Copalita River forms multiple cascades and natural pools, the highest about 20 meters. Managed by the local community, the park has suspension bridges, zip lines, and horseback riding, and a community restaurant serves simple lunches. It is about 1.5 hours from Huatulco by car, partly on mountain roads. Most visitors take a day tour that includes transport and lunch, often combined with rafting or a coffee estate. A community entrance fee applies, and you should bring swimwear and non-slip shoes.
