Guide

Approach and anchoring

Sand bottom. Sheltered from SW through S to SE but wide open to the north: use it only in settled weather, as a day stop. Landing the tender gets difficult as soon as the wind picks up.

Practical

Anchoring permitted. Water ashore and several food and drink stalls behind the beach.

Ashore

Old US Navy tanks left from the target-practice years sit on the beach. A trail leads west to Playa Carlos Rosario.
