Playa Ballena


The lovely Bahía de la Ballena represents the end of the road (Hwy 333) and a rare opportunity to park your car and rely on two legs rather than four wheels. This is the first beach you come to on the bay, with parking places and a mix of rock and tawny sand from which you can swim.
