This beach is absolutely stunning, and it's much quieter than other popular beaches like Playa Los Muertos. The water is crystal clear, and the sand is a beautiful golden color.

This beach is a lot more secluded and less touristy than the popular ones, with no vendors around. It's a great option for solo travelers as it's safe and far from the busy beaches in PVR.

The beach is simply stunning and perfect for swimming, a bit of scuba diving, and enjoying the not-too-rough waves. Additionally, the golden sand adds to the beauty of the beach.

Although Los Muertos is often talked about, I personally believe that Concha's Chinas is a superior beach. The water is noticeably clearer and bluer, making it easy to spot fish and crabs. The waves are gentle and safe for those who are not strong swimmers. On both days that I visited, there were not many people around and there were fewer vendors compared to Los Muertos. However, one downside is that there are limited food options available, so it may be a good idea to bring your own snacks and drinks. Additionally, umbrellas were only available for rent on one of the days I went, so it's best to be prepared. Despite these minor inconveniences, Concha's Chinas remains one of the best beaches I've visited in a long time.

It was quite a challenge to locate the beach due to the lack of signage and the steep hills leading to it. The area we were in had a lot of rocks, making it difficult to navigate and not very conducive to a pleasant sandy beach experience.
