It's a great beach. Unfortunately, there are no toilets; you have to walk 10 minutes to the nearest bar.

I love this beach. There are ducks and many other birds. It's perfect for relaxing. There are very few trees for shade, but the place is beautiful. There are iguana nesting sites along the way.

A nice beach to relax on - you can easily reach it from the town by $1 water taxi from the pier (ramp #2). The water taxis leave every few minutes and you'll take a 3-minute ride to Angmeyer Pier and then a 5-minute walk to Alemanes.

This beach is very close to downtown Puerto Ayora; no guide is required. Access is easy and can be done via water taxi, which costs US$1. The water taxi service operates 24 hours a day. After the beach, you can visit the Grietas (this requires a guide). There are several bird species on the beach and many different fish in the water. It's worth bringing snorkeling gear and underwater cameras (which can even be rented in town if needed).
