Love it
Jose Umana
Hidden gem 💎
Carina Maceira
Plenty of biodiversity, watershoes are a must. Lots of jacks, puffers, snappers and barracuda. Queen conchs are also a regular find. The tables are closer to the water than most beaches. Mosquitoes however, can get insane at this particular beach. Definitely come prepared with mosquito spray as the parking lot and picnic areas often get flooded ...

A hidden gem just minutes from downtown. Entry is free on foot (although it's quite a walk from the bus stop). I visited midweek and it was almost completely empty. The water was very clear and still, which was perfect for swimming. There was lots of wildlife and plenty of space for exploring.
