WORLD'S MOST IDYLLIC BOMB SITE BEAUTY

WELCOME to the Hidden Beach - the world's most idyllic BOMB SITE. This secluded paradise, with its sandy beaches and crystal clear water, is believed to have formed centuries ago when it was used as target practice by the Mexican Government prior to World War I in the early 1900s. Located in a world of its own on the Marieta Islands in Puerto Vallarta, just a few miles off the coast of Mexico, they were used to conduct military tests because they were uninhabited.
