Castillo del Toston is a very popular tourist destination. Just on the edge of the town with white sand beaches. Fhishing and surfing are possible. Just Beautiful. Rough dirt road brings you to several stops by the coast. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. It is also a place to see a skeleton of a water animal found by archeologists.
