We went during Christmas vacation and it was very crowded, but it is a beautiful beach. Be aware of the rip currents. They are strong!

The town of Santa Teresa is a charming surprise in the middle of nowhere. The food is uncharacteristically worldly. But make no mistake, it is rustic and dirty since the main road is unpaved - it kicks up volumes of dirt when dry and a muddy mess when wet.
