This beach is really beautiful and offers plenty of opportunities for swimming, despite the rocky terrain. It's also a great spot for taking photos on the rocks. Keep in mind that the access can be a bit challenging due to the steep incline, but trust me, it's definitely worth the effort.

This beach is perfect for a family day out, a romantic getaway with your partner, or a fun day with friends. While it used to be less crowded, more people have started to come here recently. There are no bathrooms, food stands, or rental options for umbrellas or chairs, but the sea is very calm and the water is crystal clear. There's a lovely area with palm trees that provide natural shade, and it's the perfect spot to set up camp for the day. Access to the beach is through a hidden corridor between two hotels called Emerald Beach, and it's important to be careful on the slippery rocks. There isn't much parking space, but it's definitely worth a visit to this beautiful spot.

Playa Esmeralda is a beach that can be accessed through a condominium. Please note that taking photos of the corridor is not allowed. To enter, head towards the condominium and look for an alley on the right where a small stream flows. The beach has a paid access area and a fairly large free area. Once you reach the beach, turn left and take a walk along the shore.
