Playa Mismaloya
Mismaloya is a compact cove between jungle-clad mountains and the river mouth. Its fishing-village palapas and gently waved water suit a combined seafood lunch and short beach stay.

Mismaloya places a short beach between the river mouth and steep green mountain slopes. From the sand you can see the fishing village setting and choose a palapa restaurant for seafood; the guide also describes gentle to moderate waves and water activities such as kayaking and snorkeling. This is a compact cove rather than a long walking beach, so it suits a lunch and water stop more than a shoreline hike.
