Las Perlas Beach: swim like a local

Between the quiet sea waves and the children’s games that add to the fun, the hours pass quickly in the waters of Las Perlas Beach. Sunbathe, swim, relax on a lounge chair, rest, eat, and read in a palapa or under a palm tree on this small and charming beach with golden sands and beautiful seas.

Las Perlas Beach: What to do

If you enjoy reading, inquire about the library area, where you can borrow books for free. Take advantage of the opportunity to unwind with a nice book while your children have a blast. A children’s playground is located at the entrance to Las Perlas Beach. On Sundays, it’s full with local families, making it a great place to spend a Sunday. We recommend going during the week if you want to get the most out of it. Although palapas and restaurants are available, you can bring your own cooler and relax beneath a palm tree.

Get the fins ready

If you want to participate in any water sports, Playa las Perlas also has a variety of possibilities. You can snorkel, scuba dive, surf, and kitesurf on this golden sand beach. Drinks, snacks, and meals prepared in neighboring restaurants or those brought in your cooler are always welcome.
