So much trash at the beach entrances, very touristy, so crowded, the sea was so rough haha ​​we came out completely covered in mud, and with a gut-cleansing experience, including nasal passages, brain, and eyes hahaha, that resets you. The beach is $350 for the whole day and includes two chairs and a table. There's everything: bathrooms, bars, restaurants, and we found a set lunch for 90 pesos, very complete and delicious, but they don't accept card payments or transfers. They also sell ceviche by the liter at a stand near the bus stop, and best of all, they do accept transfers. So many beautiful pigeons...

It's always busy because it's one of the main beaches, but that doesn't detract from its charm; quite the opposite. You'll find everyone from families to solo travelers, and if you're lucky, you might even catch a mariachi band or a lively group of people who invite you to join them.

Oh. My. God. I have no words. The vendors will relentlessly HARASS you, you will not even be able to finish your sentence with your group of people. Idk if it was because of the group we were with, but at least 5 vendors lined up while we picked out a set of chairs WAITING to give their pitch completely blocking our view. Idk if it was because we were a group of women or whatever, but it was seriously so taxing and the least relaxing part of this trip thus far. They don’t stop, it’s almost as if they just keep spawning just out of your line of sight. Avoid at all costs unless you look like a local. I don’t think I could take a breath without my next word being “no”

Over priced chairs and umbrellas, this area use to be so fun and affordable. People discard their beer can and bottles food rappers shrimp skewers. It seems the only ones giving it rave reviews are the local guides do hundreds of reviews working hard to make everything look good. Now when you rent umbrellas and chair you will be charged per person. I hope for improvement, I am not a local guide. I give honest reviews.

Very lively beach in PV great for a day of swimming, people watching and relaxing this is where it’s at in PV!!! You can parasail or get your snorkel and see what’s going on in the Pacific. A must see for a day at the beach.

Too many waves, you can't go into the water, too many rocks on the beach, tons of vendors, they charge you for everything. I wanted to relax, I guess it wasn't my best option. It's great for someone who wants to chat.
