The Majahirtas, Mexico beach is definitely a great choice for secluded beach vacations. It is only accessible by a 20 minute boat ride and only meant for day tripper excluding the lucky guests of the eight room hotel on the island. These guests have the entire beach to themselves once those on day trips leave. The bay is a great area for snorkelling and kayaking purposes.

If not on the beach, there are 7 backcountry campsites overlooking the ocean, just a stone's throw from the beach.
