After a rejuvenating week-long vacation at this stunning beach, which had undergone cleanup after the hurricane Agatha, I can attest that the beach area is immaculate. Although some areas are still undergoing repairs, the beach itself is a sight to behold. As a family that embraces body positivity, we were delighted to find that the atmosphere on this beach is incredibly refreshing. It is a perfect spot for those who dare to bare it all. The beachgoers, both young and old, share in the freedom and positive energy that this gorgeous beach exudes.

Although it is not a common sight, some visitors choose to bare it all at this beach, which is known for its nude-friendly atmosphere. Both men and women have been spotted soaking up the sun without their tops on. The shoreline is flanked by numerous hotels and dining options, and the beach of love is located at the far end of the stretch.

When it comes to describing a beach that boasts of awe-inspiring waves, a generous stretch of pristine sand, and picturesque cliffs and rocks at either end, words seem to fall short. What's more, the icing on the cake is that the beach is a free-spirited zone where you can choose to go au naturel or don your favorite swimsuit.
