Swimming is safe in designated areas like Playa Grande and Playa Negra during summer (December–March). Water is cold year-round, typically 12–18°C.

The ideal time is during the shoulder seasons: October–November and March–April. You’ll avoid peak summer crowds and winter rains. Summer (December–February) is the busiest.
