About Playa Juanillo

Playa Juanillo is a sandy beach about 540 m long, 6.3 km from Punta Cana (Punta Cana and Cap Cana). It faces southeast: wind from the northwest blows off the land here and flattens the water, while wind and swell from the southeast roll straight in. OpenStreetMap shows 3 places to eat or drink within 400 m nearby.
