Playa Tirúa is a beach on the coast of the Región del Biobío in southern Chile, near the town of Tirúa. The beach itself is the primary access point for paddlers, with a direct carry from shore to the water. The use of kayaks and other small, human-powered boats is explicitly permitted here. The beach is situated close to other local points of interest, including the nearby La Puntilla beach. A significant feature for paddlers is the proximity to a lagoon; access to this lagoon is possible within a distance of approximately six kilometers from the beach, suggesting a viable day-trip destination for kayakers launching from Playa Tirúa. The surrounding area is characterized by local communities engaged in activities like artisanal fishing and gathering, contributing to the working coastal atmosphere. The nearby Lequecahue Aerodrome is located roughly three kilometers to the south of the beach.
