Loved it!

Simply put: the best beach in Ecuador. Clean and beautiful. You can also walk to different beaches and admire a breathtaking view from the Mirador. You can do some basic snorkeling on the right side near the cliffs. But you cannot eat there... so better have a good breakfast before, like a Bolon. That will do it.

Beautiful piece of protected beach area. You will pay $2 per car to get in, and to pee or wash your feet you will pay again. I’m just happy that it’s protected. Make sure to check online their hours of business as they are closed often. Bring food and water as there is nothing to buy on the site, you will need to eat this in the parking lot, not on the beach. You can also rent beginner snorkel gear 🤗

Amazing beach!!! 🌊 I'm sure I will come back!!! The water was warm and you can see your feet inside!! 🏖 Blue color Pacific Ocean 😊 Is good to know than you should carry your water or food and come back with your garbage. Help us to keep a healthy world.🌎

A super beautiful beach where you can swim well. If you come by car, parking costs $2, and you need to pay $4 to rent a parasol. The downside of the beach is that you're not allowed to bring any food, not even a bag of chips!
