Playa Diamante

Playa Diamante Review

Playa Diamante is an estuary, formed where an underground river sends freshwater into the ocean. The result is a shallow, protected area that has far-less severe currents than other North Shore beaches, making it a great place for families with children. Playa Diamante is a very handsome beach; it's broad and very shallow for up to 200 feet into the ocean. A narrow road off of Carretera Río San Juan makes for easy access. A beautiful, park-like grassy area provides the perfect place to relax while you watch the kids play in the shallow water. The protected inlet points toward the southeast, so there are no waves. Amenities: food and drink; toilets; water sports. Best for: solitude; swimming; walking.
