Along the shores of the Pacific Ocean lies Playa Conchal, a memorable shell-sand beach. With calm, crystal clear waters, the beach serves as the perfect destination for swimming and snorkeling. An array of marine life awaits you beneath the water, with the possibility of catching a glimpse of a stingray or other exotic creature. If you're feeling more adventurous, you can go deep-sea fishing or scuba diving, or participate in a number of other water sports. The beach also has a few areas suitable for a night of camping under the stars. For travelers who use our international travel planner, Playa Conchal holidays become easier to arrange, with trips to the Playa Conchal and other attractions mapped out and timetabled.

  You can find shade. the waves are strong, but the water is perfect. Bring your drinks and your food and you will have a great time. You can walk to the nearby Beach, which is in full sun but very quiet. Attention flea sands that will sting you!

  Great beach. Need to drive on sand to get to. Local mafia offers “protection” when you park for 6$. The police needs to deal with this. The beach is gorgeous. Constantly harassed by people that want to sell you stuff on the beach.

  Beautiful beach! Large, white sand, beautiful blue water, calm, and super fun! One of our favorite beaches from our trip! Just keep driving until you past the Resort and park along the beach.

  It's one of the most unique and beautiful beaches I've ever seen in my life, You gotta live it!!! By the way, local ppl will tell you you can't park at that specific beach but there is a way to get there so don't believe them just keep driving till you get there. Also I can't believe someone would rate this beach less than 5 stars, these people are retarded!

  Long Beach so you can find a secluded spot. Soft sand! Definitely worth the detour
