Playa del Amor, Mexico
From series “Most Fabulous and Magic Beaches”
This beach is located on the Mexican island of Marieta. Playa del Amor can be considered one of the most amazing and unique in the world because of its special structure. Playa del Amor is often called the hidden beach. Really, it is almost completely hidden from prying eyes by a natural canopy. Marieta Island is uninhabited. It has been formed many hundreds of years ago by a volcanic activity.
The coastal part of the island is literally covered with a hollow shell. The unique Playa del Amor has formed in the place of the occasional crack in that shell. It's not so easy to find and reach this secluded beach. It's necessary to swim through the tunnel, which is the natural entrance to the cave. It is noteworthy, that a hundred years ago, the Mexican government used Marieta Island as a testing ground for military equipment tests.
