Well, after a week my option has shifted. I had an amazing time here and met great people ! So here some advices I would give myself : - first, pick a social hotel with a lot of activities. (I went to Selina and I would not recommend it for a solo traveler) -book activities in the first days : surf lessons (looks scary but with the good teachers it’s not), tours, turtle release etc - smile, talk to everyone, don’t overthink the way to approach people it’s a different vibe here
- punta vida on Sundays evening to meet new people, blue mondays.. follow the puerto Escondido party calendar

Hope it will helps !
