User reviews

"The beach is bustling with energy! There are numerous individuals and vendors selling their handcrafted keepsakes, delicious alcoholic beverages (such as the refreshing coco parcha mojito featured in the photo below), and even a gentleman who offers cups of freshly made ceviche on weekends."

Nella Navarro

"This beach is just so lovely, with its calm waters and convenient options for buying food and drinks. Safety is also a non-issue here, so you can relax and enjoy the scenery without any worries. And the best part? It's not even that crowded! But let's be real, who needs crowds when you have a pristine beach all to yourself?"
