This small to medium sized beach in the Alcabre area is a great spot to visit, especially outside of the summer season when it is practically deserted. With beautiful views of the exit of the Bouzas cove and the lighthouse of the Museo del Mar, it's no wonder why it's so popular in the summer. The sand is fine and dark, but not as muddy as the Bouzas beaches. Plus, there's a free parking area and easy accessibility, making it an ideal spot for a day trip.

The beach has a beautiful setting, but it's not the best for bathing at low tide. Plus, it has white sand, which is an added bonus.

8 Very good

This location is small and tucked away, but the sand is soft and white, the views are stunning, and there's a promenade with benches. The only downside is the abundance of algae in the water, but otherwise, it's perfect!

The gardens surrounding the beach are pristine, with a playground for children, however, the beach itself had a bad odour, a lack of sand and was not particularly clean. Fortunately, it is easy to access.
