A beach town on the north coast that grew from a fishing village into one of the world's leading kiteboarding and windsurfing centers, thanks to reliable afternoon trade winds. The main bay is lined with beach bars and surf schools, while nearby Playa Encuentro handles the wave-surfing crowd. Canyoning trips into the Damajagua-like rivers of the interior round out an action-focused scene.
