Playa La Estrella

Nestled beneath the majestic castle lies a charming little beach that exudes tranquility and serenity. During the winter months, this hidden gem is a peaceful haven with only a handful of visitors, allowing you to bask in the natural beauty of the surroundings undisturbed. The gentle lapping of the waves against the shore and the soft rustling of the leaves in the nearby trees create a soothing melody that will transport you to a state of pure relaxation. If you're looking for a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this beach is the perfect destination.

Nestled away from the bustling city of Santiago lies a picturesque beach that is simply breathtaking. The piña coladas served here are unparalleled and come at an incredibly affordable price. The fried plantains are also a must-try, but it's important to be mindful of the prices of other items being sold. One of the major advantages of this beach is that it remains untouched by tourist buses, ensuring that there are not too many people around. Overall, this is a truly stunning spot that is definitely worth a visit.

This beach is an absolute disaster. The flora is deceased and the entire area is desolate and lifeless. If you do manage to make it to the water, be prepared for a treacherous journey over jagged rocks. I wouldn't recommend this beach to my worst enemy.
