Since we did not feel like we got to spend as much time at the beach as we would have liked, we returned the next day (this time by a 20-minute boat ride instead of another hike) and spent most of the day on the beach. We snorkeled a bit, and found some respite underneath a little tree. The sand was too hot to stand on midday and we were happy to have settled in a little shady oasis.
We got a massage that evening on the balcony of our room to finish our stay at La Paloma. We would leave early the next morning to head north.
