Ballena Beach Holiday

Relax by the water and feel the salty sea air on your skin during your Ballena holiday. If it's your first time, why not pick up some pretty seashells as a memento of your trip to Ballena? Base yourself near Ventanas Beach, a popular strip of coast only 3 kilometres from the downtown area. We also have terrific Ballena holiday packages that are closer to Arco Beach, another terrific option.
