Olas Altas Beach is more than sea and sand. It is the place where your heart vibrates for the food, the music and the joy of the people.
Olas Altas Beach is another emblematic beach. Adjacent to “The dead”, so we have the opportunity to admire the great pier of the dead. With its small boats around, some for fishermen and many other tourist ones or the boats that function as taxis and transport you to the beaches of Mismaloya and its surroundings.
It is also the favorite place for the city's surfers who gather in the afternoon, when the waves are impressive in size, hence its name. The maneuvers they perform are worthy of photos for postcards. These athletes range from 16-year-olds to more experienced mature men.
There we find all kinds of stalls selling local dishes, such as roasted shrimp on a stick, oysters in their shells, and the traditional tuba or coconut water.
