World-class waves: The beach is famous for its long, right-hand, and consistent waves, with pointbreak formations. It receives all types of swells and is considered the most consistent wave in the region.
Natural amphitheater: Its geographical configuration, in a shell-shaped bay, creates a natural amphitheater that serves as the perfect setting for surfing events, such as national and international championships.

Best time to visit: The beach works well at all tides, but the best time for surfing depends on the wave conditions. In summer, it's a great spot to watch the sunset.
