Agawa Bay Beach

Agawa Bay is magnificent for its stark contrast of endless beach, watery horizon, and surrounding wilderness of forest hills and bare cliffs.

Due to its exposed, open-water conditions, the water at Agawa Bay tends to be cool for swimming, except during heat waves on windless days when it’s a refreshing joy.

Pancake Bay Beach

The water at Pancake Bay is clear, crisp, and refreshingly chill, making it best on hot and calm days.
