Who cleans the beach up after the 1 week so the next 51 weeks look like you show? :-)

Does this beach get as trashed as the beaches of Bahia Concepcion??

La Paz municipal/county employees.

A garbage truck from La Paz made a run this morning, (Saturday).

There is usually a lot of trash left behind but, surprisingly, most of it is bagged/stacked near the trash cans that are along the road. The beach is usually looking pretty good again by the following week.

Yes, there are.

The hot water seeps up through the sand in the the tidal zone along at least a 1/4 mile length of the beach. Just walk in knee deep water at high tide or right at the water's edge at half tide or below. You will find many spots where an area of the sea water is warm and the sand is very warm underfoot.

Some people dig pits in the beach just above the waterline and the pits will then fill with hot water.

Locally known as: Playa Agua Caliente

For years, I avoided the beaches during Easter week, but a couple of years ago went to Santispac looking for a friend and found a lot of nice people having fun. Spent the day visiting and people watching.....kinda fun really..
