The beach is absolutely stunning, with its pristine and immaculate appearance that is always maintained. It is effortless to navigate and explore, with convenient access to all areas. Additionally, one can easily catch a water taxi to either the Marina or Lovers Beach for a delightful adventure.

This beach is truly splendid, but it's important to remember to apply sunscreen to avoid any unwanted sunburns. It's worth noting that some vendors may try to overcharge for their products or services, so it's best to be aware of this. Additionally, due to the high number of American tourists, prices may be listed in USD and can be quite steep when converted to Mexican pesos. In short, while this beach may be a bit pricey, its beauty and charm make it well worth the visit.

This charming beach offers a refreshing escape for both tourists and locals alike. The crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming, and the beach is bustling with activity. You'll find plenty of local vendors eager to share their wares with you, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. If you're lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of a cruise ship stopping in the water, with small boats ferrying passengers to and from the shore. As the sun begins to set, you'll be treated to the sight of boats embarking on sunset tours of the water. And if you need a break from the beach, you'll find a variety of restaurants just a short distance away. Overall, this beach is a lively and unforgettable destination that's sure to leave you with lasting memories.
