I love San Juan del Sur bay, I have been coming here since I was a little girl... still a very nice small town where the peaceful waters make a perfectly safe swimming in the ocean.
When you don't feel like making the hike to Maderas or one of the other beaches around San Juan Del Sur, the beach here will suffice.It's not super pretty, super clean, or protected from the wind, but it is a short walk from town. On the hottest of days, when a trip out of town is out of the quesiton, you can still pop into the water for a quick dip here.The sand definitely sticks to you, so be sure to schedule a rinse session after your stay at this beach. Also, on windy days, the sand whips up pretty fierce, so check the weather report.
beach was ok, but the wind was outrageous and the sand got into everything. The vendors got to be very annoying.
Great beach. We didn't swim in it but we waded in it. People say it's not great to swim in but we thought is was very nice and clean. We enjoyed coming out and walking the beach each morning and evening. Also, we saw people running on the beach and I think it would be great for exercising. The sunsets on the beach were beautiful. Water is cold! Lots of bars and restaurants to eat and have drinks at along the beach.
When the tide is low the beach seems huge and the water so far away but once the tide is high a completely different story, water comes right up to the restaurants. Always clean, always a lot of activities. Prices are not like they used to be, things have much more expensive...
It is beautiful place, clean, good restaurants, great atmosphere, quite, peaceful place. Everybody is relaxed. We felt just as in a different country, after Managua.
Beautiful little bay with sandy shoreline, bars and restaurants. The town of San Juan del Sur offers lots of shopping as well. Find a great spot, grab something cool to drink and just sit back and relax. You won't be disappointed.
nice beach to walk but nowhere to really lounge and in Feb the winds are pretty strong so you would it blasted by sand with every gust
Both the beach itself and the water seems a bit dirty. Would need a clean up. The sunset view is great however but it's better to take a shuttle to other beaches during the day.
This is such a beautiful beach to walk in the morning. It is completely flat and easy to walk. Beware of the dogs playing in the beach! They are having fun and wild! My husband got hit by one of the dogs while walking and hurt his knee!
