It serves as a launch point for paddlers, with its wide sandy shore providing direct beach access. The area is known for hosting significant sporting events, including a Pan American paragliding precision championship, and is a venue for kite-related activities, with launches sometimes coordinated from the nearby Morro de Arica. These aerial activities indicate the area can experience conditions suitable for such sports, which paddlers should be aware of as potential wind patterns.
