Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Tijera 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 Tijera 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 Tijera 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.

This beach has a charmingly rustic feel and is equipped with shade palapas. It's worth noting that entry is free to the public.

That place in Zipolite is the best one around. The water is a beautiful turquoise color and there are corals and fish that make it perfect for snorkeling. However, be careful of the waves. It's also worth mentioning that the beach is open to the public and there is no charge for entry.

8 Very good

The beach is quite far away and secluded, requiring visitors to bring all necessary supplies as there are no amenities available. The final stretch of the road, spanning 400 meters, can be a bit unnerving and hazardous, so it's recommended to have a vehicle with four-wheel drive. Despite these challenges, the beach is definitely worth a visit as it offers a delightful and enjoyable experience.
