Guide
Good to know
Find a sheltered cove for calm water
A protected bay on the north or left side of the beach offers shallow.
Expect an extremely steep drive
The narrow paved road down to the beach is so steep that multiple visitors reported brakes locking.
Bring all food, water, and supplies
The beach has no facilities, food vendors, restrooms, showers, or amenities of any kind.
Pack out all your trash
Several reviews emphasize taking all trash with you because of protected sea turtle nesting sites on the beach.

Questions
Common questions
How far is the walk to the water at El Cocal Beach?
70 ft in a straight line from the listing to the mapped shoreline, under a minute. Soft sand and dune make the real walk longer than the straight line.
Does El Cocal Beach have restrooms?
No restrooms are mapped within 600 m on OpenStreetMap. That means nobody has mapped any, which is not the same as there being none.
Measured from OpenStreetMap, public aerial imagery and live conditions data, and counted from visitor reviews. Every source, in full.
