Bahía Suroeste

This gorgeous bay boasts a magnificent palm-lined beach backed by steep hills. There are just a couple of hotels here, so it's a great spot for true escape. If you're on the island on a Saturday afternoon, be sure to come here for the weekly bareback horse race along the beach, which starts around 2pm.
