Latest reviews on Santiago's beaches

Morrillo Beach
10 Nyla Rodriguez

The beach is stunning, but the currents are quite strong. It's not recommended to bring small children or non-swimmers as the waves can be quite large. Additionally, a 4x4 is necessary to access the beach due to the poor condition of the road. It's important to bring your own food and snacks and to clean up after yourself since there are no food vendors in the area.

We visited El RompĂ­o, where the floating dock is located. The good thing is that the pier has potential, but it would be great if public bathrooms were installed to prevent any unpleasant smells in the area. Additionally, there are several restaurants along the road.
