Playa Palmares
Palmares lies south of town along Highway 200, with a ramp down from roadside parking to amber sand. Services and broad bay views make it a more equipped south-coast stop.

Palmares makes a practical south-coast beach day if you want facilities without taking a boat. A roadside parking area and long access ramp lead past the Sail of the Galleon sculpture to amber sand and an often rocky waterline. The guide lists toilets, lifeguards, furniture rentals and a beachside restaurant; verify which are operating on arrival. Gentle to moderate waves can still change, so inspect the shore before paddling or swimming.
