👍👍 It's a beautiful place and climbing up the mountain is not hard to do! Climbing down the stairs to see the rocks and sea may be a little risky for elderly people or young children, so I would advice people to be careful. There's a middle stop that has a resting space, so making a stop there to consi...

👍👍 Super nice public beach with soft sand. Pro tip: go early for good parking and prime beach spot. It starts filling up around 11am. There are 3-5 palpapas for use, but recommend taking an umbrella to beat the heat.

Long white-sand beach featuring shallow waters plus umbrellas, restaurants & dolphin sightings.

👍 Disclaimer: I am not a fan of giving five star reviews. I save those for the best experiences. Though I did wondered if this place deserved it. A warm beach, given and enhanced by its shallowness near the beach. Warning: wear sandals and a lot of sunscreen.

Large ocean pier boasting a sleek, contemporary design & picturesque coastline views.

This compact white-sand beach on a small bay is accessed via a footpath on a steep slope.

👍👍 Beautiful town, beautiful beach. I loved this town and the beach, we where there during the week so it wasn’t as busy, not sure how busy it would be on the weekend. Streets are narrow and there is always a lot of people so I recommend parking in the beginning of the street, if you take the rinconcit...

😐 I would say the beach is not ideal for swimming... quite ruff, and windy when we came. Water is murky. However there are a few solid restaurants along the beach, and a few more local ones closer to the Centro that have fried fish at around 130 pesos

Centred around an inlet filled with small islands, this eco park has a wealth of wildlife to see.

🫤 My partner and I showed up at 3pm on a week day having done very minimal research about the sanctuary. We were not necessarily interested in doing a baby turtle release—we just wanted to see the nesting grounds, beach etc. The area is a quiet, beautiful and peaceful place to spend time and bird watc...

👍 Gorgeous sandy beach! That said, the undertow and riptide means it’s for advanced adult swimmers only. We let our kiddos wade in, and although they had a blast, we were close by and always had our eyes on them. Please exercise extreme caution if you are with small children or inexperienced swimmers....

🫤 It's a beach... With alot of shells, you will get chased by every boat tour company. Not really pretty at all. Wouldn't recommend.

😐 Service is good, food is good, pricing vs. Proportion of food good, parking average, ambience good...

👍👍 An unforgettable experience walking in the middle of the sea

👍👍 One of the best beaches in Cancun. Beautiful water, so clean, well maintained. Access to the beach is free. You may just give a few box as a tip to the people helping you to get into the parking.
