Melones shares a parking area with Playa Sardinas, and the two beaches are separated only by a narrow peninsula.

The Melones side is an excellent beach for snorkeling. The beach is a little rocky and there are a few sea urchins here and there, so beach shoes are a plus. On the north side of Melones, you will see a lot of corals and seafans, and Melones is also home to many turtles because of the amount of sea grass that grows here.

Pro Tip: try a night swim to see some bioluminscence!
