This beach is the widest in Colonia. There's a beach bar during the summer season, but beware of local thieves. Do not go here after dark, or even dusk.

There is a beach although the water is very muddy and a fairly run down walkway. It could be so much better than it is but worth a walk.

Very nice little beach only minutes away from the town by car. There is an unofficial nudist (and gay friendly) side to it which is separate and secluded from the main beach and is very nice. If you get there early, you can get the shade of the big tree otherwise bring your umbrella. The water is lovely and shallow to refresh when you get too hot in the sun. On the main beach, there is a parador for supplies and that side is much bigger with loads of space if the nudist beach gets too busy.

A very beautiful, quiet beach I will surely return I loved it. The sunsets are magical or so I felt, the sand is very beautiful, it has a view that allowed me to clear my mind. Although it took me a little bit, I couldn't stop commenting on it.
