The most beautiful natural sites to discover Las Galeras

It is accessible by car via a tarred road (follow the signs, 7 km outside the village) and visited by the whole lot of travel agencies and resorts in the area, and even by a few crooks attracted by the tourist windfall (be careful!). As you can see, with its miles of sand and its transparent water, it is far too beautiful to have it all to yourself. At the end, a small river allows a refreshing swim. And then, take a break in the local restaurants offering seafood and lobsters!

Playa Fronton and its neighbor Playa Madame are only accessible by boat or horseback. It takes 25 minutes to reach them through extraordinarily beautiful coastal landscapes. Impressive cliffs fall steeply into the ocean. Coconut trees, almond trees and cactus vegetate the fine sandy beach. Playa Fronton is a beautiful diving site with corals and tropical fish. Don't forget your mask and snorkel (and bring water shoes to protect you from corals and sea urchins!). An excursion not to be missed from Las Galeras.

This small cove of fine sand is completely wild, superb and very little frequented. A real postcard with its golden sand wet by a crystal clear water of a radiant blue and its tropical vegetation. Attention, the access is done by a private property, the guard will surely ask you to leave your car at the entrance and to continue on foot (it is necessary to count 30 minutes if one arrives since Las Galeras). Big waves can make swimming dangerous, but the visit is worth it. Moreover, the beach is often deserted!

This small beach of Las Galeras is only 5 minutes away from downtown. Nicknamed playita by the locals, it is a long strip of white sand bordered by leaning coconut trees and beach restaurants. The water is clear and gently undulating. A very pretty and popular site (especially on weekends), suitable for swimming. You can rent deckchairs for 150 pesos. Note also the presence of the cave Cueva Duarte, on the left when leaving the beach. A visit to be made in complement of the main beach of Las Galeras.

A natural aquarium created off the beach and the brainchild of Japanese biologist Kaio Morita, who created this aquatic garden using rocks and succeeded in attracting a wealth of underwater fauna, with a view to protecting the region's marine fauna. The snorkelling trip is therefore particularly rewarding! From the beach, boats take you to the aquatic reserve. Equipment can be borrowed on site. The trip takes about two hours. A fun outing.
