The beach is peaceful and perfect for a family outing. It boasts golden sand and offers the option to park in the shade of a palapa for $50 per vehicle or free parking further away. Tables are available for $80 for four people. Snacks, seafood, and soft drinks are available at varying prices. However, the bathrooms are poorly equipped and somewhat dirty.
