The music video was released on February 28, 2019 on Anna Carina's official YouTube channel. It shows Anna Carina singing while dancing at the beach and having a beach party. The video includes cameos from several stars including Yo Soy judge Katia Palma.[7] The video was shot in Miami and was choreographed by Anna Carina along with her sister María Pía Copello, who appeared in the video for her previous single and is a Peruvian children's television host.[8]
