Playa San Pedrillo (Veraguas) is located outside the La Maquina 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 and the correct question is not how to get to Playa San Pedrillo, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

User reviews

"The beach was an absolute delight with every aspect being top-notch. From the crystal-clear waters to the soft sand, everything was simply superb. The atmosphere was serene and tranquil, making it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a slice of paradise."

Liriana Cruz

"As you make your way to Arrimadera, a picturesque beach awaits you. A leisurely stroll along the shore, a river crossing on foot, and a short climb up some stairs lead you to a path that guides you to your destination. After a 15 to 20-minute walk, you'll find yourself standing on a stunning stretch of white sand, where the waves are just right for surfing. Slip on your trus..."
