Potrero Beach

Posted on August 12, 2025February 19, 2025 by Ultimate Guide

About: This isn’t the most beautiful beach in the area, but it has a less touristy vibe, more popular with locals and fishermen. The beach is long and the road runs along it, allowing you to park nearly anywhere and access the beach easily. There are plenty of restaurants on the beach and in the town that you can walk to without needing to move your car. The sand is clean but dark in color.
