Beach overall scores
Playa Mahahua (Colima) is located outside the La Central settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. 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, 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.

"The beach was a stunning sight to behold, with its pristine waters and velvety sand. The sun's rays kissed my skin as I listened to the soothing melody of the waves lapping against the shoreline. It was an idyllic setting that offered the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I wholeheartedly suggest making a trip to this beach if you get the opportunity."
