The most important thing about this beach is the tranquility that you breathe. It is pleasant to rest, read, enjoy the sea and have a cocktail.

It is the most beautiful beach on the island! It is worth going to spend the day. White sands and water of 2/3 colors similar to those of Aruba. During my stay I will go again, the typical drink is the coco loco 🥥 🌴
