This beach is quite charming and has some tide pools. The waves can be quite powerful at times.

This untouched beach located between Cuatunalco and Salchi has a unique scissor-like shape, with a small cliff jutting out into the sea in the center.

This beach is very tranquil and has stunning views. However, it's not ideal for families with children due to the large waves, which can be intimidating even for strong swimmers. If you're looking for a place to relax and unwind, this is the perfect spot. It's quite secluded, so you'll need to drive for around an hour to get food or other supplies. Additionally, there is no phone reception in the area.

I highly recommend camping at this gorgeous spot and taking in the beach in the early hours when it's not crowded.
