Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Violín beach (Oaxaca) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Violín beach (Oaxaca) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Violín beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach is conveniently located and easily accessible, despite the slight inaccuracy on Google maps. It's actually closer to Las Palmas Villas & Casitas.

The beach with serene and peaceful ambiance, but getting there can be a bit of a challenge. During our visit, the crowds were minimal, but the water was slightly murky, so we refrained from taking a dip. However, we did appreciate the gentle waves that lapped at the shore. To reach the beach, one must park their car on the road and carefully make their way down a slippery and treacherous hill. With caution and care, the journey is manageable, and the reward at the end is well worth the effort.

The pathway leading to the beach was quite challenging, but we were glad we didn't bring too much with us. Our snorkeling experience was underwhelming as we didn't spot many fish, but we were taken aback by the abundance of tiny plastic particles floating in the water. Despite having explored numerous beaches in the vicinity over the past five weeks, this was the first time we encountered such a high degree of pollution.

What a heavenly spot! The water at this beach is so pure and transparent, it's like looking into a crystal. The tides are gentle enough to make it perfect for a refreshing swim. And the best part? It's not overrun by crowds. Currently, it's considered low season in Huatulco, so if you arrive early in the day, you can have the entire beach to yourself. The descent to the beach is quick and easy, taking less than five minutes to climb down and up.
