User reviews
"To my delight, Marosa beach stands out as a picturesque destination. Its allure is particularly enchanting during the off-season, when the boats remain anchored and the only visitors are those who venture there by foot. However, it may not be suitable for everyone as there is a steep slope to navigate down."
Sarai Ortiz
"Absolutely adore it! The beach boasts an alluring dark volcanic sand that is not easily accessible, contributing to its serene and tranquil atmosphere."
