El Palmarstretches approximately two kilometers long and is best for surfing, jet skiing, parasailing or a nice sunrise of sunset run on the sand. An important piece of information to highlight about this beach is its certification as a clean beach by the International Blue Flag Organization. Due to the great quality of its waters, it is the only beach in Guerrero that has this honor.
