The morning time was already so hot and sunny that it was worth heading to a beach club. As the 3rd and 4th guests for the day, we had our pick of front row deck chairs and umbrella to the water. There's a very nice seating area on the edge of the pier, but the access isn't direct from there and it has rocks directly in front. So I think our choice was the best.
Beautiful waters, excellent snorkelling straight off the beach, not very busy.
There's no entry fee or equipment hire charge. You just buy your food and drinks instead. Whole coconuts 100pesos had a large amount of fresh young juice. Then upon request they cut them open so we could scoop out the delicious flesh.
The seafood platter (1100 pesos) firstly came as a big plate of fried tortilla chips with salsa and hot sauce, before the platter arrived. Lobster flavour was ok but overcooked. The prawns buttery and grilled perfectly with edible skin. Fried fish had an outstanding soft texture. Calamari and octopus were both good. Fries nice, seasoned rice excellent. The only poor bit was the grilled fish was sadly dry.
Not cheap, but for the overall setting and use of the facilities, well worth the experience.
An excellent beach club that I would gladly return to.
