Maigualida Beach still has many beautiful sights to offer; a clear sky with just a few clouds stretched out before us mid-morning, and various gannets and seagulls fluttered in the air—I could see them up close, and they were truly huge.


This beach curves to the left, giving it the appearance of a lake; the crystal-clear water and the reflection of the trees on the hill and the coconut palms along the shore accentuated this impression. The palm trees were very tall and laden with young coconuts, so we had to be careful when standing in the shade of some of them.


My attention was drawn to two tamarind trees bearing fruit—the first time I’d ever seen them on a beach. They can thrive in this environment thanks to their tolerance for salinity and resistance to strong winds. However, they’re planted further inland because they can’t withstand direct contact with saltwater.


There were several boats in the sea, a sign that we had arrived at a fishing community; the people here make their living from fishing and survive thanks to the seafood they gather from the beach. The boats were quite colorful and had very unique names. As I walked along the shore, I saw a fisherman in front of his house scaling some mullet on a wooden board.



On the east side is the Maguilida Hotel, a lovely place to stay for the night, with beautiful gardens and private parking. From the outside, you can see that it’s a very pleasant and peaceful place, with an incredible view. The building is laid out horizontally, so the rooms are cabin-style. At night, the view must be breathtaking because the beach has a sort of forest on one side, and those scenes in the moonlight would undoubtedly look like a painting.


I liked the beach; its shoreline is sandy almost all the way along, except in the wooded area, where there’s a mixture of sand and mud that makes it easy for your feet to sink in. I didn’t care for that part of the beach—it feels like a muddy puddle, caused by the waves reaching the vegetation and carrying away soil, dragging along organic matter that later turns into a dark, paste-like sand.
La playa Maigualida todavía tiene muchos paisajes hermosos que mostrarnos, un cielo despejado con pocas nubes se presentaba ante nuestros ojos a media mañana, diversos alcatraces y gaviotas revoloteaban en el aire, podía verlas muy de cerca y eran realmente grandes.


Esta playa tiene una forma circular a la izquierda, lo que la hace parecer un lago, el agua cristalina y el reflejo de los árboles de la colina y los cocoteros de la orilla acentuaban esta impresión. Las palmeras eran muy altas y estaban llenas de cocos tiernos, así que había que tener cuidado al quedarse bajo la sombra de algunas de ellas.


Me llamó la atención dos árboles de tamarindos que tenían frutos, primera vez que los observo en una orilla de playa. Pueden estar en este ambiente gracias a su tolerancia a la salinidad y resistencia a los vientos fuertes. Sin embargo, están sembrados hacia el interior pues no soportan el contacto directo con el agua salada.


En el mar había varias embarcaciones, indicio de que llegamos a una comunidad pesquera, se dedican a este oficio y sobreviven gracias a los productos marinos que obtienen de la playa. Los botes eran bastante coloridos y con nombres bien peculiares. Caminando por la orilla observé a un pescador frente a su vivienda descamando unas lisas sobre una tabla de madera.



En el lado este se ubica el hotel Maguilida, un lindo espacio donde se puede pernoctar, tiene hermosos jardines y estacionamiento privado. Desde afuera se puede observar que es un sitio muy agradable y tranquilo, además, con una vista increíble. Su construcción es horizontal, así que sus habitaciones son de tipo cabaña. De noche la vista debe ser impresionante porque la playa tiene una especie de bosque en un lado y esas imágenes a la luz de la luna sin duda serían una pintura.


Me gustó la playa, su orilla es de arena en casi toda su extensión, solamente en el área boscosa se aprecia una mezcla de arena y fango donde los pies se hunden con facilidad. Tal superficie no fue de mi agrado, se siente charcosa, producto del oleaje que llega hasta la vegetación y se trae la tierra, arrastrando materia orgánica que posteriormente se transforma en una arena pastosa y oscura.
