Brenda was a pleasure to work with! She was very patient with all of my thoughts and ideas, and used all of my feedback to put together a fantastic private sunset catamaran tour for my husband and I to celebrate our anniversary. Brenda also provided lots of great information for the Samara area, and even after our tour was over she continued to be very helpful and even passed along photos from the captain of the boat of our wonderful experience. If you are visiting the Samara area, I highly recommend reaching out to Brenda if you need help or have any questions at all! Her services are free, and she will go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful trip.

Koss Art Gallery

Reviewed By godoggo59 - Port Elgin, Canada

Gallery is on the beach towards South end, but set back. There is a sign on the beach up by the fence. Nice bright abstract paintings. Friendly artist.

Barrigona Beach

Reviewed By 992mariettat

Accessible by 4 x4 vehicle, and a short walk from the parking you have an amazing white sand beach with crystal waters and wonderful trees for shade. Big waves, but swimmable.

Belen Waterfall

Reviewed By nedgorski

But, it dries up in the dry season. Very dramatic waterfall when the water is rushing through and down it. We were glad to visit it. Folks have drowned in it, though, so don't overlook the water hazards or slippery rocks.

Playa Buena Vista

Reviewed By Weerobbie - Kingston, Canada

If you are looking for that long walk on a pristine beach, where you may encounter only a few people, this is the place!. At low tide, walk across the small river onto the beach and from there you have a few kilometres of beautiful beach and pounding surf. You are occasionally treated to Macaws or shore birds. Warning: surfing only at this beach, swimming is dangerous due to the rips. The beach is about a 30 minute walk from downtown.
