Chacala

Fodor's Review:

Some 30 km (19 mi) north north of Rincón de Guayabitos, Chacala is another 9 km (5 mi) from the highway through exuberant vegetation. Although most people are content to dine or drink at the handful of eateries right on the beach while imbibing the soft-scented sea air and the sight of the green-blue sea, you can bodysurf and boogie board here, too. Swimming is safest under the protective headland to the north of the cove; surfing is often very good, but you have to hire a boat to access the point break.
