Baco is a lunar impact crater that lies in the rugged southern highlands on the near side of the Moon. The rim and inner wall has been eroded and worn by countless minor impacts since the original formation of the crater. As a result any terraces have been worn smooth and the rim is overlaid by several tiny craterlets. The interior floor nearly flat, with no characteristic central peak at the mid-point and no small craters of significance.

There are several minor craters located in the surrounding terrain, including the satellite craters 'Baco A' just to the south and 'Baco B' to the northwest. Further to the north is the Breislak crater, and equally distant to the northeast is Ideler crater. Further to the west is Cuvier crater, while Asclepi crater lies to the southeast.
