This beach is a hidden gem, with enough space to socially distance from the few other groups that may be there. If you venture past the rocks, you can claim your own private oasis. The water is stunningly beautiful and the temperature is just right for a refreshing dip. However, beware of the ant army that may attempt to invade your picnic. Remember to pack trash bags and take your garbage with you to the designated area at the top of the hill (don't be that person). All in all, a picturesque spot for a day of sun, sand, and solitude.

The beach is absolutely adorable and just a short stroll away from the town. For those who are willing to explore a bit, the smaller sister beaches to the west are worth the scramble over the rocks. You might even find yourself with a stunning tropical beach all to yourself! For those in search of a larger beach, Punta Arenas or Caracas might be more suitable. However, if you're looking for a convenient spot to hang out in the afternoon, this beach is an excellent choice. To top it off, this beach is also a fantastic spot to catch a breathtaking sunset. If the bar in town is packed or you don't want to venture out to Mosquito pier, this beach offers a pretty great alternative.

This beach is a great spot for glass hunting! It's always amusing to see the glass and watch it disappear with the waves. It's conveniently located just a short walk from town. During my visit, I even had the pleasure of encountering some friendly wild horses who were looking for a snack.

The snorkeling on both sides of the beach is quite good, especially near the rocks that become visible during low tide. While it is a city beach and there may be some litter around, on calm days with good visibility and undisturbed sand, it is arguably the top free snorkeling spot accessible from the shore on Vieques. The beach is conveniently located within walking distance of the ferry and various restaurants on the main street. There are also shaded areas to relax in during the afternoon, and the sunsets in the evenings are truly stunning.

The beach is fantastic and it's usually not too busy, with only a few people walking along looking for interesting rocks or glass. Some areas of the beach have black sand, which is well-known. The water is clear and warm, making it a great place to visit again in the future.
