Playa Escondida Beach

Crystalline waters and white sand are an essential part of the Islas Marietas’ charm. This is where you will find the beach known as Playa Escondida or Playa del Amor, characterized by its enormous crater, as well as by the fact that it is home to more than 40 species of plant and animal life; dolphins, corals, turtles, fish and birds are among its population. Those who love to observe nature will experience this beach as an Eden. 

Thanks to its natural richness and the fact that it is within a conservation area, it is now possible to visit this place as long as you observe certain guidelines.
