User reviews
"Playa La Jaca may be small, but it is far from impressive. Spending half a day here is not something I'd recommend. The few fishermen and people hanging around only added to the dullness of the atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to do yoga, you'd be better off looking elsewhere."
Omario Sabado
"Nestled between Abades and San Miguel de Tajao, Playa de la Jaca is an idyllic beach paradise. With its crystal-clear waters and white sand, it is the perfect spot to while away a day in the sun. Whether you're looking to relax or take part in some aquatic activities, La Jaca has something for everyone. Come experience the beauty of this stunning beach for yourself!"
