This beach is privately owned, meaning that it is restricted to vehicles, horns, and pets. In order to access the beach, you must park your vehicle in the designated area and walk for approximately 30 minutes to reach the shoreline.

This beach is truly delightful, with its pristine cleanliness and serene ambiance. It's the perfect place to unwind and recharge in solitude. However, it's important to exercise caution as the local wildlife, including crocodiles, can be dangerous. Despite this, the beach remains a stunning destination for anyone seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating escape.

The beach is pristine and unspoiled, offering a peaceful and solitary escape. The surf is powerful, making it unsuitable for inexperienced swimmers and young children. However, for those who are confident in the water, the waves provide an exhilarating challenge. Additionally, the beach is an ideal location for camping, with ample space for relaxation and enjoyment of the natural surroundings.

8 Very good

The beach offers of impeccable cleanliness and a serene atmosphere with minimal crowd. However, the waves can be quite daunting for young children, as they soar to great heights. Additionally, the beach carries a pungent odor that may not be pleasant to some.

The Riviera Nayarita boasts one of the most breathtaking beaches, where the sunset is a natural spectacle gifted by Mother Earth. Sadly, this paradise is on the brink of being privatized by foreign investors who plan to develop an exclusive residential complex and ban non-resident tourists, including Mexicans. This decision is a blatant display of corruption and abuse of power, as it deprives locals of their source of employment and sustenance. It's a tragic loss for the community of Monteon, whose closest beach is being taken away from them.
