For Memorial Day 2005, we took a last minute trip to Huatulco, Mexico. Huatulco (pronounced wah-TOOL-co) is in the state of Oaxaca (pronounced wah-HA-cuh) on the southern Pacific coast.

Our requirements for this trip were warm weather, beach, relaxing location, good seafood and serviced by Continental (since I had an unused ticket to use). We considered Ixtapa, but decided to go to the less popular Huatulco.

If you are looking for a moderately priced, relaxing beach vacation with GREAT food, this place is for you.
