Cruz
Bay Beach, located right downtown, is a pretty sand beach fringed
with coconut palms and seagrapes.
The beach is a wonderful place
to sit and enjoy the scenery and the activity of the harbor.
It is not, however, particularly good for swimming or water sports
because of heavy commercial and pleasure boat traffic.
