Arrive by 9:00 AM on weekdays to claim a prime spot before the mid-morning crowds arrive. November through April offers the calmest seas and most comfortable humidity levels.
Budgettips
The beach is completely free with no entry fee. Rent two loungers and a palapa umbrella for around 300-400 pesos, or bring your own towel and save that money for fresh ceviche from the vendors along the shore.

Korte feiten: Crystal-clear waters stretch over 2,500 feet along this sandy stretch on the northern shore. Local legend says the gentle surf here was once a favorite spot for pirates seeking calm waters to careen their ships.
Hoogtepunten: At sunrise the entire beach glows with a soft pink hue, a trick of light bouncing off crushed coral particles mixed into the sand. You can wade out nearly 200 feet before the water reaches your waist, making it feel like you are walking on the surface of a giant turquoise mirror.
Insidertips
- Skip the club-side restaurants where prices double; buy a cold beer or fresh coconut from one of the roving beach vendors instead.
- Walk toward the western end of the strip near the ferry dock where the water stays shallowest and families with small children tend to gather.
- Bring water shoes if the crushed coral catches you off guard, though most find their sea legs quickly.
- Snorkel along the rocky jetty at the far eastern point where small schools of sergeant majors and parrotfish congregate.
