Playa El Agua is one of the busiest beaches on Margarita Island, located on the northeast coast. It’s famous for its long stretch of sand, making it one of the widest beaches on the island. This spot attracts many locals and tourists looking to soak up the sun and enjoy a beach day. While it can get crowded, there is always a lively atmosphere with beachgoers enjoying cocktails and the ocean views.

The surf conditions here can be decent, particularly when there's a swell coming from the northeast. The waves usually break over sand and can handle sizes starting from 1 ft (about 0.3 meters), making it beginner-friendly at times. You'll find both left and right-hand waves, adding a bit of variety to your session. The best times to catch waves are during low to mid tide, especially when the wind is coming from the southwest, which tends to create cleaner conditions.

In addition to the surfing, if you're looking to explore, it’s possible to rent an ultralight to get a bird's-eye view of the coastline and locate some nearby spots that might be less crowded. Just keep your eyes peeled; you might discover some hidden gems further along the coast.
