Things to do at Macao Beach: surf, local flavor and adventure

Macao reveals a more open, local side of the coast. You may arrive for the beach and remember the fish, wind and off-road energy just as clearly.

Local guide

A beach made for waves and adventure

The wide shoreline and Atlantic swells make Macao a reference for surfers and beginner lessons. It is also a common stop on buggy routes, so activity rises when excursion groups arrive. Go early for a calmer visit, or combine the beach with surf and Dominican food for a more active day.
