San Agustinillo consists of a small fishing village and a stretch of beach at a place with the Sierra Madre del Sur meets the Pacific Ocean in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. It is located in the municipality of Santa María Tonameca just east of the coastal communities of Mazunte and La Ventanilla, connected by a road that runs from these towns to Zipolite and Puerto Ángel to the west. These coastal communities together are known as the “Riviera Oaxaqueña or “La Costa Chica Oaxaqueña.
The community was established about the same time as Mazunte. Fishermen in San Augustinillo made a living by hunting sea turtles until this was banned in 1990. (secturoax) Major economic activities here for most residents are still agriculture and small scale fishing, with some tourism, based on the beach.
The fishing village is located at the far west end at Playa Rinconcillo. The fishermen offer boat tours of area as well as rental for sportsfishing. Just immediately to the east of the village are palapas but almost nothing has been built at the far eastern end. From June to December it is possible to see Olive Ridley turtles laying their eggs on this beach.
