Some specific destinations or activities we suggest are visiting Barrigona Beach, a remote yet close beach that offers a true nature experience. It is a white sand beach, with tropical vegetation surrounding it. Great nature family trip. Playa Carrillo Beach to the South is also very beautiful, and especially known for being a very safe one, ideal for families. Samara itself is a very beautiful beach, especially its Southern End. We recommend visiting Isla Chora Island, you can do that by booking the snorkeling – kayaking tour that departs daily. This remote and protected island has some amazing sites for snorkeling.
