This rocky cape, jutting out from the west end of Mazunte beach, is the southernmost point in the state of Oaxaca and a fabulous place to be at sunset, with great long-distance views.
For a beautiful walk to the point, take the lane toward Playa Mermejita off Calle Rinconcito, and go left up the track immediately after the cemetery, to reach the community nature reserve entrance after 250m. Here take the path leading down to the right (Sendero Corral de Piedra Poniente) which leads you to the point in 20 to 30 minutes via Cometa's scenic western side. You can return more directly by the Sendero Principal path. Total roundtrip walking time from Calle Rinconcito (without stops) is about one hour.
