I absolutely loved my experience at this small beach. It's where I first discovered my passion for fishing and where I caught a manta ray, razor shells, squid, and cuttlefish. What made it even more special was the white, fine sand. It was an unforgettable and wonderful experience and I highly recommend it to anyone! I wish I could go back there one day.

This small urban cove is a great spot to relax and enjoy the views. With a bar opposite overlooking the beach, it's easy to access and a great spot for a refreshing drink. The best part is that you can often spot dolphins from here, making it a truly special experience.

I had an amazing time at this beach. We stayed at a nearby hotel for three days (only 200n away) and the beach was incredibly peaceful with crystal clear waters. Despite the fog, which was quite frequent, the Atlantic water was still warm. There was a chiringuito right next to the beach with delicious food at great prices. You could also take a stroll if you got tired of sunbathing, and the view of Isla de Tambo from the beach was simply stunning. The access to the beach was also very good.
