Fodor's Expert Review Playa Caimancito

Situated just beyond La Concha Beach Club Resort, 5 km (3 miles) north of La Paz, Caimancito is home to a scenic stretch of sand and some sun-shading palapas. Locals swim laps here, as the water is almost always calm and salty enough for easy buoyancy. There aren't any public facilities here, but if you wander over to the hotel for lunch or a drink, you can use its restrooms and rent water toys. Amenities: parking lot. Best for: sunsets; swimming; walking.
