Yani Island beach (Guna Yala) is located outside the Niadup 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 Yani Island beach, 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

"San Blas is home to a popular island with delicious food! Don't miss out on taking a swing picture, it's a must-do. Like all the islands in the vicinity, it offers simplicity along with breathtaking views. The staff there are friendly and accommodating. It's even better to visit during the off-season."

"Our stay at Yani Island with this incredibly hospitable family was absolutely fantastic! The island itself is absolutely stunning and doesn't attract too many visitors, which is great. The food, especially the fresh fish and shrimp, was absolutely amazing. The rooms and bathrooms were also very clean. I would highly recommend visiting Yani Island!"
