beach that is approx. 10 miles long.
It is perfect for swimming, body surfing,
board surfing and fishing.

catch.

The sunset is a thing of beauty. You will enjoy the temperature
of the water which is an unbelievable 26-28 C/84-88 F. Because of our close proximity to the southern hemisphere and our pitch black nights stargazing is something
special here. Bring some powerful binoculars.

Visit the impressive lagoon where you can rent kayaks and go out on the lagoon or into the ocean surf. Boogie boarding the waves is a favorite pass-time
here; there are boogie boards for rent or bring your own. If you enjoy adventures, take a motor-boat trip through the lagoon and see fresh water fish, crocodiles,
birds and animals, as well as mangroves and many other exotic plants.
HIKING the GUAMILULE GRIND:
We have the Guamilule hill which may be climbed by anyone who has the stamina to attempt it. On the top of the hill you will be rewarded with a spectacular view
of the entire bay and you may see the complete extension of the lagoon.
FISHING, FISHING, FISHING PARADISE! |

The beach is a fisherman's paradise! Bring your rod and reel for an unbelievable fishing
experience right off the beach or from a fishing boat. If you are lucky you can catch a Barrilete, a 20-30 pound Curel-Jack or a Mahi mahi. Your fishing line
should be 15-20 pound test, equipped with a 30-40 pound leader, and your spinning reel should hold at least 175-250 yd's. of fishing line. Live bait, sardines
or anchovies are preferred, but good silvery plastic wiggly lures work as well.
Boat fishing trips and tours through the lagoon (bird watching) with guide can be arranged at our villa.
WHAT'S FOR DINNER!
On the beach and on the lagoon shore there are several enramadas or beach restaurants that offer a variety of delicious sea food and local fare.
In the village there are several typical Mexican eateries; also known as; "typical backyard BBQ eateries". For a more culinary experience you can always go to
Zihuatanejo, which is just a half hour away from this idyllic location in Paradise.
