This beach is simply amazing, with a relaxed and laid-back vibe that will instantly put you at ease. If you decide to venture into deeper waters, make sure to wear some protective footwear or fins, as there are plenty of rocks and sea urchins to be found. While taking a leap off the pier can be exhilarating, be sure to take heed of the advice from a local resident who warned against jumping at night due to the potential presence of sharks. However, during the daytime, the pier is the perfect spot to take a plunge and soak up the sun. Don't miss out on the chance to experience this incredible beach!

This charming beach is a true gem. You have the option to rent snorkeling equipment from a nearby shack, and the underwater world is teeming with a variety of colorful fish. It's definitely worth taking a dip and exploring the aquatic wonders.

The beach area is a charming spot that is perfect for indulging in some surfing or boarding activities. Although the size of the beach can cause it to become a bit crowded, there are ample spots to find some shade or set up chairs. In addition, there is a protected area located to the side of the beach which is definitely worth exploring.

This beach is a fantastic choice for those who are new to paddle boarding or kayaking, especially children. However, the only downside is the challenge of finding parking. The water is quite shallow and the waves are minimal, making it a serene and peaceful spot for a day at the beach.
