Playa Norte (North Beach)
Parim aeg külastamiseks
Arrive by 9 AM on weekdays to claim a prime spot before the day-tripper ferries unload crowds around 11 AM. November through April brings the most comfortable water temperatures and lowest humidity.
Eelarvenõuanded
No entry fee exists for the beach itself, but expect to pay 150-300 pesos for a pair of lounge chairs and a palapa umbrella. Pack your own cooler with drinks and snacks from a local supermarket to avoid marked-up beach-club prices.

Teave
Kiired faktid: Powdery sand shifts between white and pinkish hues depending on the light and tide. The shallow waters stretch nearly 200 meters out before reaching waist height, making it one of the Caribbean's most swimmable beaches.
Esiletõstmised: Kiteboarders race across the shallows at sunset, their colorful sails backlit against the horizon. Locals say the beach glows faintly at twilight thanks to bioluminescent plankton stirred up by the gentle waves.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Walk south past the main club area toward the rocky point for much thinner crowds and even softer sand.
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen: the shallow marine preserve offshore means rangers occasionally check and fine for regular chemical brands.
- The best photo spot is from the water looking back at the palms at golden hour, not from the shore.
- Skip the rented snorkel gear here and instead walk two blocks to the lagoon side where the coral is healthier.
