Flamingo
Playa Flamingo pairs a world-class marina with a crescent of white sand, boating, sportfishing, and upscale beach living.
Upscale, marina-centered, strikingly beautiful. Flamingo is a quiet beach town wrapped around an incredible white-sand beach, a renowned spot for sunsets. The luxury marina sits at its heart, with shops and restaurants made for people-watching, and it’s the launch point for fishing, scuba and snorkeling tours plus sunset cruises. Zipline, catamaran and ATV tours all operate from here. Some of the region’s best-known restaurants are here too: Coco Loco, Margaritaville, Mono Loco, Angelina’s and Hazel’s. Full range of accommodation, from luxury boutique hotels to budget Airbnbs.
