User reviews

"The beach had stunningly blue-green water with varying shades of color. It was enjoyable to wade in the warm water up to waist height and watch the wind surfers, who were full of energy and had colorful sails. Even if you weren't interested in swimming or snorkeling, it was a peaceful and relaxing day at the beach."

K V

"Despite the presence of crying babies, you can still have a great time at this beach. Whether you're looking to be active on the water, relax in it, or party next to it, this beach has it all. If you're interested in windsurfing, Jibe is the place to go, but if they're all booked up, Sebastian's is a great alternative. For those who enjoy a leisurely walk through the water, ..."
