Our prime location offers convenient access to these coastal gems, making your beach exploration effortless.

Playa Alicia: Sosua’s Spontaneously Beautiful Gem

Often described as offering breathtaking views and a more tranquil, “chill vibe” compared to its bustling neighbors, Playa Alicia is a must-visit. This beautiful beach has a fascinating origin, having spontaneously appeared in 2003, and has since become a beloved spot for locals and visitors alike, prized for the quality of its golden sand and clear waters. Sometimes referred to as Waterfront beach, its calmer atmosphere makes it perfect for romantic sunset strolls or simply unwinding to the sound of the waves. Terra Linda Resort’s proximity to Playa Alicia is a distinct advantage for our guests.

Playa Imbert: A Secluded Snorkeler’s Paradise

For those seeking a more secluded escape and an underwater adventure, Playa Imbert is an excellent choice. This beach is renowned for its excellent coral reefs, teeming with tropical fish, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling away from the crowds. Imagine discovering vibrant marine life in a peaceful, unspoiled setting.

Its lively atmosphere is perfect for those who enjoy a bit of buzz with their beach day.
