However, swimming at this beach should be done with extreme caution due to the strong currents in the area, so we recommend that the water does not rise above your hips.

It is situated at the base of Montaña Bermeja, whose majestic presence stands out on the horizon. From the beach, you can admire the whimsical shapes of the mountain and enjoy a unique landscape that combines the beauty of the land and the sea.
