What Makes the Tide Pools Special
Unlike the open beaches of Esterillos Este — where waves are stronger and the current isn’t ideal for swimming
the tide pools in
Esterillos Oeste create calm, shallow areas perfect for wading.
Here’s why visitors love them:
• Safe for families: The rock formations block the waves, creating
small, natural “pools.”
• Teeming with marine life: Children (and adults!) can spot tiny
fish, crabs, and even starfish.
• Great for relaxing: The pools warm up in the sun, making them feel
like natural Jacuzzis.
• Perfect for photography: With the ocean as a backdrop, the pools
look amazing in photos, especially at sunset.
