Why visit Uroa?

  • Quiet east-coast beach
  • Central island position

Practical local advice

Add the exact accommodation because beach properties can be far apart.

Times vary with traffic, weather, road works and the exact hotel entrance. Add your flight, accommodation and luggage details when booking.

Make a day of it

Ask for a return ride, waiting time or several stops in the booking notes. Attraction, boat, guide and restaurant fees are separate unless confirmed.
