Coco Bay – A gathering place where memories are made
Coco Bay located on the East side of the resort, spans 800ft of pristine coastline. Here, the sand is soft, and the water is gentle. Hikes and nature tours start here, paddleboards and kayaks launch here, its the perfect spot for watching sunrise and evening bonfires alike. Our Beach Club is also located at Coco Bay, where you can enjoy service at sea cocktails, your favorite refreshments, or a fresh coconut.
Find your own slice of paradise
For exploring by foot, Clay Sands is also located on the West side of the resort. Here you will have the sound of the waves to keep you company and is a great spot to go shell-hunting or explore the tidal pools.
Looking for some adrenaline? Sand Dollar is Selva Terra’s surf beach, which offers a sandy bottom point break, suitable for beginners and intermediate surfers. Visit us between April and August for best swell conditions. Located only 2 minutes away on boat, or a 10 minute paddle from Clay Sands.
Want something more private or perhaps a beach just to yourself? Coquito Bay and Cala Secreto are two sandy and serene beaches East of Coco Bay accessible via foot at low tide, or via kayak.
For exploring tide pools and mangroves by foot, head over to Estuario Secreto for a flat sandy beach where the rivermouth reaches the ocean. Further East, you will find Layla Bay. Tucked away and sheltered from the ocean’s swell, this tranquil bay offers a rare sense of calm. The waters here are smooth and gentle, perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, or simply floating in peace.
Whether you’re seeking a moment of reflection, a leisurely afternoon, or an adventure on the water, the beaches at Selva Terra Beach Resort offer every guest their own private corner of paradise.
