Poneloya Beach
Poneloya
A long-established seaside resort right next to Las Peñitas, where León residents come to cool off on weekends.
Poneloya lies north of Las Peñitas and is a traditional beach getaway for León residents. Along the shore are vacation homes and seafood restaurants. It is very lively on weekends and during Holy Week, but quiet on weekdays. The beach is wide and good for strolling and watching the sunset, but the waves are big and there are rip currents, so be cautious when swimming. It can be combined with a visit to Las Peñitas.
