Playa Jackson is the westernmost beach of the Samaná peninsula (except for Playa Las Majaguas east of Samaná El Catey Airport) and a little hidden gem. It is covered and protected by lush mountains and abundant vegetation and is only accessible via a short, but very steep path which starts halfway on the Boulevard de Atlántico. There are two beaches to explore which are just divided by a salient rock formation that can be passed on a little path over the hill. Furthermore, there is a crystal clear river at the western end of Playa Jackson, which just comes out of a cave behind the beach – you can’t find fresher spring water in Samaná.
