Playa Frontón

A secluded beach beneath towering limestone cliffs, reachable only by boat or on a hike of about an hour; a hidden paradise for snorkelers and climbers.

Playa Frontón lies at the easternmost tip of the Samaná Peninsula, east of Las Galeras, backed by steep limestone cliffs. The coral reefs by the shore are good for snorkeling, and the cliffs also have climbing routes. It takes about 15 minutes by small boat from Las Galeras, or about an hour on foot along a forest path with rough terrain. The beach has no facilities, so bring your own water and food, and keep an eye on the time for the return boat in the afternoon. It can be combined with nearby Playa Madama on the same trip.
