So beautiful, and so much marine life to see. You can walk into the water and see beautiful colourful fish, or you can gather some snorkelling equipment and swim a bit further out (maybe another 10 meters out) to see puffer fish, parrot fishes, starfish, and underwater sculptures.

Beach with a family atmosphere featuring a cycling/inline skating path along the marina.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Playa Linda. If you want to snorkel there is a beautiful beach at Isla Ixtapa which is a 50 pesos ride to Isla Ixtapa.
