Latest reviews on Cortes's beaches

Playa Magdalena
8 Johnston English Academy

Cabañas was an unfortunate experience for us. We stayed for 4 nights in a hotel right by the beach, and there were plenty of restaurants and stores nearby. However, the beach and water were not taken care of at all. It was filled with toilet paper, bottles, and the smell of dead fish was unbearable. We were not alone in not wanting to go into the water. We won't be returning to Cabañas due to the fact that it did not live up to expectations.

Praia de Mino

Not bad. It's not the best beach, but it's not the worst either. Nothing to write home about, but it's still a nice spot to spend the day. It's alright. Not the best beach in the world, but it's not the worst either. Nothing special, but it's still passable for a day out.

Playa Gandario

Praia de Perbes

Perbes Beach is a sight to behold. It may not be large, but it boasts a stunning landscape, with the other side of the estuary in the backdrop and rocky outcrops on either side. The copse on the right adds to its rustic beauty.
