“Amazing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 16, 2012

The right place to enjoy the sun, sand, surf, wind and peace.

It's not crowded; you’ll relax your mind and body, people are very friendly.

Wonderful soft sand, nicer than Playa Santa Teresa. Not very crowded in the off-season, had it pretty much to ourselves.

“Beautiful beach”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 31, 2012

Beach was not over populated, had great waves for beginners and intermediate surfers, and was very clean. Definitely worth the taxi ride to get to!
