OUR ENVIRONMENT
FLORA & FAUNA
_________________
The mangroves of Chacahua form a unique ecosystem that supports wildlife and the local economy. Thanks to the ecosystem created by the mangroves, more than 500 species (birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, and amphibians) live in this ecosystem.
The coastal soil of Oaxaca is extremely fertile, supporting numerous plantations of mango, papaya, watermelon, melon, pineapple, and lemon, as well as a wide variety of wildflowers.
This plant life is so rich, and at Casa Gallo we are big fans of connecting with all this nature.
Casa Gallo is for those seeking this direct connection with nature and the ideal starting point to experience this ecosystem.
ZAPOTALITO

CHACAHUA
_________________
Zapotalito is the Afro-Mexican fishing community that serves as a gateway to the lagoons, where local activity is based on fishing in the sea and freshwater.
Our location is 10 minutes from Zapotalito, the starting point to reach Chacahua.
We are not directly in the town of Chacahua; its beaches are visited as a boat excursion during your stay, which allows you to experience local life and return to the absolute silence of the house at the end of the day.
