Playo Paraiso. These beaches are a kilometre apart, and one may easily walk

between them when the tide is not full. While Sirena offers full service facilities for

tourists. A shuttle "train" service takes tourists from the resorts to these beaches.

sports related to the hotels, a restaurant, dolphin attraction, docks for catamaran

trips. The lee side of the beach features tidal flats where many very large starfish

congregate and other tropical fish are easily viewed.
