Guide
Good to know
Best for quiet relaxation
Reviewers consistently praise it as peaceful and uncrowded, with stunning views of the Cíes Islands.
Go at low tide only
At high tide, the beach shrinks dramatically and becomes cramped; at spring tide, it nearly disappears.
Arrive early to park
The entrance is squeezed between houses with no dedicated lot, so parking fills quickly in summer.
Watch for sea urchins
Multiple visitors report sea urchins in the water that can cause injury.
