Maya Beach
A quiet resort beach on the northern part of the peninsula, dotted with boutique resorts and seaside restaurants, and less crowded than the village.
Maya Beach lies about 10 km north of Placencia village. Its long, quiet coastline is home to several boutique resorts and oceanfront restaurants, making it the peninsula's second main accommodation area. The wide beach is good for morning runs, swimming and sunrise watching, and many hotels have docks for boat trips. It can be reached by taxi or bicycle from the village. Carry a light if you walk along the road after dark.
