Was very windy at this location next to beach, and best spots were already taken. So went up the arroyo on the opposite side of the road, about 300-400m in. Had very peaceful and wind free night. Arroyo sand is very soft in places so only recommend with 4WD (and aired down).

Since this is a beach spot, I'd only recommend it if you have 4WD. There's no problem with swimming or getting into the ocean here. It's rocky, but if you have some kind of water shoe it totally works.

I pulled off and down a little hill @500 M before this pull off and had an amazing night. There’s room for 2 or 3 vans, SUV, maybe campers. A fire pit. Super quiet. Rocky beach. May be the place that’s listed here! But…. Try this if you don’t find the coordinates for the other

place still available and pretty cool. very diverse flora and fauna but not ideal for water activities. covered, quite level and definitely 2wd.

Very nice place but be aware of the rattlesnake - one was direct under the car door

Past reviewers are correct - the beach is not ideal for swimming. However everything else about this spot is awesome! Secluded, hidden from the road, quiet, private. There are a few different “roads” towards the beach that access the camping spots. We found it best to walk through them all and pick a route first. Paths are narrow and there’s some soft sand. Great alternative to Playa Norte. Slow going/rough road with washboard to get here, but totally worth the drive from Los Barriles.

really bad place for camping or cars, you will need a 4x4 and high vlearance (got stuck twice) and the beach is nothing spectacular, thousands of flies and no swimming as there are way too many rocks!

This spot is not really nice. Ok for one night, not more. Lot of big stones on the beach. There is space for 2 - 3 vehicles. Firerings are there.

Ha ha ! This is THE spot to spend tge night if you just need a spot for free in Los Barrilos. Near the rocky beach. Far away from civilization. And there is a tree for hammock lover. Would recommend. Road is ok for RV and 2x4

Nice few spots on a rocky beach as described below. Not great for swimming but we managed to take a few dips. We also saw another road about 30 feet north of this one where there was a larger, flat area to setup shop plus more shade and further off the road.

2 wild camping places north of Los barriles, fire pits and some stones mark the spots. Beach is stoney but nice
