You may take a day trip with Bill Beard's to hot springs and mud baths. We have several options from the beach area. Check with our reservation office for the one nearest to your accommodations.
The mineral rich mud baths are always a popular place with the tourists who visit the area.
You too can discover the rejuvenating qualities of the volcanic mud which are not only excellent for making your skin smooth, supple and radiant, but also provide a lot of dirty fun.
