Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Great place with a breeze usually and very little flies the majority of the time. During the day lots of locals who are very friendly and nice. Then just after sunset everyone clears out. Pretty quite at night.
Report Check-In22.03.2018 be careful, we had been robed at the place! There had been us and another camper. A group of three criminals came with armes and we gave them our money, and they robed us and the other camper. It had been dangerios for us!!!
Report Check-InStayed here a few nights. Checked other ioverland spots in the area before and this is definately the best. Free, garbage can available, under palm trees and felt safe. Police came once, everything ok. Close to El Carmen town (free wi fi in front of italian Pizza -No hay wi fi network-). Recommended!
Report Check-InGreat spot, camped here with another rig for a few nights over the weekend. Locals coming and going all day, but quiet at night. Less busy than the other free spot at main beach. Rock pools and a small creek to enjoy.
Report Check-InNice parking spot or informal camp site. After looking at two other campings near by and having them charge me $20 just for parking I decide to try this one. And it's quite good.
