Like most of Barahona's beaches, this one has pebbles rather than sand, and is popular with surfers, who come to enjoy the fast crashing waves. On the other side of the beach is the Río Los Patos, where a wide natural pool attracts locals who come here to swim and spend a fun afternoon by the river and near the beach. Los Patos beach is located directly along the coastal highway between Barahona and Pedernales.
