User reviews

"The beach offers breathtaking colors, but it is quite small with only three salinas to visit - two orange and one pink. Additionally, it seems overpriced for its size. However, the photos taken here are perfect for Instagram. While I wouldn't suggest making a long drive solely for this beach, I highly recommend visiting the Rió Lagartos Biosphere instead."

"This place is absolutely real! It's called the Sol salt plant. The water has a beautiful pink hue, although swimming in it is not allowed. Despite being quite far from our intended route, I must say it was definitely worth the detour. On our way back, we made a quick stop at the public beach nearby. Just a heads up, when you leave, expect to be covered in salt and sand. It's..."
