This is one of our favorite beaches! Located in Rincon's Marina, which has a small boat landing, restaurants, and a beach where calm waters permit great swimming and paddle boarding year-round. The Marina is also where most dive tours, sail tours and fishing expeditions depart. There are plenty of shady spots to set up camp. El Ancla is right on the beach, where you can get food and drinks.
