Playa de Samil is simply amazing! The sand is so soft and the water is so clear. It's the perfect place to relax and take in the beauty of nature. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great beach experience.

I'm giving this beach 4 stars because it's a great spot for a day out - the sand, sea, view and facilities are all top notch. There are plenty of amenities for kids, like playgrounds, showers and even a pool. The only downside is that it can get quite busy at times.

That place wasn't very impressive compared to other Galician beaches. The water is too dirty to swim in, but it's still suitable for sunbathing. There are also small parks nearby, and basic amenities such as toilets and showers are available. If you're looking for a nicer beach experience, it's probably better to go to Cangas or somewhere else.

This place in Spain may look inviting, but the blue waters are deceiving. Don't be fooled by the beauty - it's not worth a visit.

This spot in Vigo is a great spot to visit. It has easy access, a parking lot, and nearby restaurants. Plus, the views of the islands are simply stunning!
