The closest thing Bávaro has to a beach town — fishing boats, souvenir stalls, water-sports vendors and seafood shacks on the sand. Fully exposed to the east, it collects seaweed on arrival days, and public sections get raked less than resort frontage. Come for the local flavor as much as the swimming.
