The most popular recreational features of La Paz are its lovely beaches, all covered with soft sand, which slope gently into clear blue waters. Most offer watersports rental facilities, and 'palapa' (woven palm frond umbrellas), which can be hired. Coromuel Beach is closest to the city centre while further along the Trans-Peninsula Highway are Tesoro Beach, Pichilinge, Balandra and El Tecolote. La Paz also has a reputation for offering more extreme water adventures, such as big game fishing, kayaking, windsurfing, kitesurfing and scuba diving, particularly in the waters around the island of Espiritu Santo. Whale-watching excursions and eco-tours in the mountains to the south of the city are also popular holiday diversions.
