The city's main beach, on the southwestern edge of the seafront promenade. A long, gently curving strand of pale sand backed by palm trees and a wide paved promenade, well used by locals and surprisingly quiet despite being inside the capital.
The water is sheltered and the swimming is calm — a useful family stop for visitors who want to combine an urban day in Arrecife with a swim. Showers and a few cafes on the promenade behind the sand.
