Hiking

The tombólo is an islet in front of Covachos beach that can be accessed when the tide goes out. You have to control the low tide and high tide to be able to enter as well as to be able to leave because there are people who get lost and then cannot easily return to the coast.

Running

At times it is an inaccessible island but with the difference in tides after a few hours you can get there on foot, just keep this detail in mind so you don't have to swim back later.
The beach that forms at low tide is for many the best beach in the area.
