No dislikes....just enjoy the miracle. You meet local fisherman on the way and you can buy their catch also. Make sure you have your camera on hand, it is incredible.

Punta Cometa is 10 minutes walking from the cementery near Mazunte. If you go in the afternoon you can take a bath in the Yakuzi ( which is a small natural swiming pool where the waves make a yakuzi effect ) and see the beautifull sunset ......sometimes is possible to see dolphins or whales.....i went many times there with friends...

The southernmost point of Oaxaca state, if you're in Mazunte a walk out here to see the sunset is compulsory. But be warned, the end of the peninsula is very exposed, and gets extremely hot.
