Playa El Quemaito
Playa El Quemaito Review
Although just down from Casa Blanca and Hotel El Quemaito, this beach is seldom populated during the week, so never swim alone. It's usually dead calm because of a small reef; consequently, it's safe even for small children to swim here. White stones are interspersed with white patches of sand where you can put down your towel—but be sure to keep your belongings safe. There are no facilities, but you could take lunch or have drinks at Hotel El Quemaito.
- Address: Km 16, Carretera de la Costa, 9 mi (16 km) southwest of Barahona, Juan Esteban, 81000
- Location: Barahona
