About Playa Marlín

Being a large beach with a gorgeous view, one could spend all day at Playa Marlin. The beach is not only beautiful but does not burn the feet while walking as the shimmering white sand that covers the coast is made of crushed coral, which naturally feels cool underneath bare feet. It is a perfect public beach for those who are not spending big money to stay in big beachside resorts. Adventure junkies can also go sailboarding and parasailing in the rough waters.
