However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Playa Chaparrales with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The beach is absolutely lovely - it's peaceful and not too crowded. The weather was ideal when I visited, with gentle waves and golden sand. I suggest wearing comfortable shoes or sneakers since there are plenty of shells around that can be uncomfortable to walk on with bare feet. Additionally, be cautious when entering the water."

Ekios Squad

"This serene and obscure seaside is a hidden gem, boasting breathtaking vistas. It's advisable to don water shoes as the sand is coarse and littered with shells. The locals are hospitable, and the cuisine is decent. I highly suggest visiting this tranquil spot to appreciate the scenery and relish the peace and quiet without the crowds."
