Good to know

Bring a camera for views
The beach offers picturesque views of the fishing port, historic buildings, and coastal cliffs from the town center.
Expect black sand and coal dust
The sand contains coal particles from Asturian mining history, not pollution or fuel oil.

The beach stretches only about 250 meters at low tide and is better for strolling than sunbathing.
