Quieter than nearby Malagueta
Located next to the busier Malagueta beach, Caleta attracts fewer crowds and offers a more relaxed atmosphere.
Shallow water, good for families
The beach has shallow water and a sheltered cove, and visitors regularly bring small children and praise it for families.
Arrive early to secure a spot
Visitors report the beach fills up, especially in summer.
Water quality varies by location
Several visitors report dirty water closer to town, while others praise clean water further along the shore.
Check location before visiting
GPS errors and unclear boundaries mean visitors sometimes arrive at rocks or a narrow artificial section instead.
