Pluma Hidalgo is a small town located in the northeast of Chacalapa, Oaxaca, at the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains, just 30 km from the Oaxacan coast. The elevated altitude makes for a mild climate, a perfect balance of tropical warmth and mountain breeze. 

 

From the hillside on a cloudless day you can see the Pacific Ocean.

 

It is known for its coffee & chocolate production. There are a few shops in town where you can purchase them. There is a handful of adorable cafes such as La Flor Del Cafe and Comedor Raquel. The town square is a lovely place to pass time and connect with the local community.
