The beach is renowned for its pristine white sands and crystal-clear turquoise waters, creating the perfect place for pictures and setting for relaxation and enjoyment. Its remote location adds to its charm, offering a peaceful retreat for beachgoers.
While chilling on the soft sands of Playa Zoní, consider bringing a picnic to snack on while enjoying the coastal scenery. Remember to pick up any trash to help preserve the beach's pristine environment.
There are no amenities at Playa Zoní — with no restrooms or showers available directly on the beach. Visitors may need to find restrooms at nearby restaurants or accommodations.
Additionally, be mindful of the fragile reefs lining the coast and choose swimming areas carefully to avoid disturbing the marine ecosystem. While swimming at Playa Zoní, you can see the breathtaking views of Cayo Norte and Culebritas right across!
During certain times of the year — particularly from April to June — Playa Zoní serves as a nesting ground for endangered sea turtles. Respect these magnificent creatures by refraining from disturbing their nests and eggs, contributing to the conservation efforts of the local ecosystem.

In the picture below, Gabriel was on a mission to get a fresh coconut down from the palm trees as we were walking along the shores. He got one down and, after a while, finally cracked it open! We had fresh coconut juice along with some sand in our mouths 😂 — but the experience was still amazing.
