Beachcombing is a fun leisure activity that the entire family can get into. So, why not take the kids to Penca Beach to see what you can find washed up on the seashore?

Penca Beach is a great place kick off your day in Potrero. This stretch of coastline is recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Pencil in time for other attractions like Flamingo Beach, Conchal Beach, and Playa Potrero to fully appreciate what the area has to offer.

Be prepared for about a mile walk down the hill to the beach (and back up!). We had to park our car at the top of the hill due to the dirt road being washed out. Visited January 2019.
