03 · Location

In context.

A compact, semi-urban white-sand beach on Arrecife's south edge, SSE-facing and windy, sits beside a marina where sailing and canoeing are common. The break works mainly on local windswell, best on a southwest swell with west wind, but rates low for consistency and is often flat in summer; submerged rocks are a hazard on entry. No lifeguard documented; nudism not permitted; it carries a conservation designation.
