The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike.

Playa Malibú is a secluded beach that is bordered by two inlets, with one leading to Costa Azul and the other to Barra de Santiago. The beach has a vast expanse of fine brown sand, and it is relatively level. The sunsets at this beach are absolutely breathtaking.

The beach is truly beautiful, but the only downside I noticed is the street leading up to it. The entrance is unfortunately marred by a chaotic and unpleasant street.
