Zicatela Beach
This stretch of beach runs 3.5km from the bottom tip at La Punta right up to the Playa Principal. Also know as 'The Mexican Pipeline' it attracts some of the worlds best surfers.
***Please note, this stretch of the ocean has VERY STRONG under currents and rips, it is NOT a beach for relaxing swimming***
It is, however, a great place to park up in a sun lounger all day, sip on coconuts and eat fresh food, and watch the sunset. There are plenty available up and down the beach.
