Playa Blanca, Playa Los Cocos and Playa Tortuga

Playa Blanca These are endless beaches with mile after mile of fine sands and crystal-clear waters. This untouched natural environment provides refuge for hundreds of birds (such as sea gulls, pelicanos, cormorants, flamingoes, humming birds, etc.), iguanas and turtles. Big iguanas rest on the rocks overhanging the beach . Playa Blanca is the longest one and has tiny coves. Playa Los Cocos is so called for the shady coconut palms reaching over the frame and mast of an ancient shipwreck, its waters are shallow. At Playa Tortuga, hundreds of sea turtles come ashore to lay their eggs on the bank . These three beaches are less wide than the ones at the West side of the Island (Paraiso, Sirena), but they offer the same quality of white sand, never too hot, and turquoise warm waters with a soft underwater incline.

To go there:
  • By the beach: After the Capricho, you can walk for hours and hours going East.
  • Rented vehicule: Dune Buggy, jeep or scooter 50cc. Take care with the scooter because after the Capricho, you will have to ride on small sand trails. When you reach the end of this path (mark by a big sign: No jeep, No buggy, No scooter) you will have to continue by foot on the path or on the beach (easier).
