Guide
Good to know
Arrive early for parking
Parking is easier here than at nearby Espiñeiro beach, suggesting it may fill on busier days.
Visit at high tide
At high tide, a lagoon forms with clearer water and more swimming space than the rocky, crowded low-tide cove.
Expect rocks and anemones
The cove bottom is rocky with stinging anemones, making it better for snorkeling than traditional swimming.
Avoid afternoon visits
The cove receives no sun in the afternoon and becomes shaded, reducing appeal for sunbathing.
Bring sturdy footwear
Access is via a dirt and gravel ramp with wooden handrails, not suitable for strollers or wheelchairs.
