Create an itinerary including Jobos Beach
Surfers love Jobos Beach, which boasts excellent conditions for catching some waves. While the high, consistent currents make the beach unsuitable for snorkeling or swimming, the waves combined with the shallow depth make the beach a favorite for surfers. Less adventurous visitors can bring a kite along to take advantage of the breeze, or relax on the soft golden sands with a picnic. Since this doesn't count as a public beach, lifeguards don't patrol the area; approach swimming with caution and keep a vigilant eye on younger members of the family. Due to a lack of changing facilities, visitors normally make do with changing behind the area's abundant trees. Using our online itinerary creator, Isabela attractions like Jobos Beach can form part of a personalized travel itinerary.

  • Jobos beach is very popular so best to go during the week. The rocks and spray from the water are pretty. The boardwalk starts right there. We watched lizzards, birds, colorful fish, and manatees...

  • Very popular beach with all the amenities and next to very nice rock outcrop. Chairs and umbrellas rental available. Very crowded when we were there.

  • A very popular and lively beach on the east end where the water is shallow and still. The crowd is young and vibrant with many locals from the town of Isabela. Jobos becomes quieter and unoccupied heading west where the waves break closer to a much steeper part of the beach.
  • Beautiful beach! Loved the atmosphere of this place. Restaurants and bars in front the ocean that was definitely a plus for me. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone:)
  • We spent a few very relaxed days at Jobos Beach. The new facilities of the place give a new air to the experience. They have several very good restaurants.
  • Great beach that is good for the whole family. There is plenty to eat and drink. Like most beaches in the PR, get there early for good parking and finding a spot on the beach.
  • Great beach for snorkeling and swimming and perfect location (lots of food and drink options nearby). However, you need to be mindful of the current, it can pull you out a bit. My husband did get stung by a jellyfish while swimming out a little ways, but I think it was just a weird incident because it doesn’t appear to be common thing at this beach. There are plenty of shade spots that make this beach a beautiful spot to relax!
