This beach has powerful waves and a charming bar to the right. However, if you opt to visit during low season, you may find that there are no amenities available. The beach can be a tad unkempt and grubby due to its location in a town. Additionally, it's important to note that this is the final town where you'll have access to cell service if you're heading south towards Caleta de Campos.

The beach is a beautiful spot, albeit the waters can be treacherous due to it being open sea. The restaurant is a culinary delight, with delectable dishes that are worth the wait, although the service can be slow at times.
