The Pontevedra estuary between BUEU and Marín is a stunningly beautiful landscape.

Beautiful and serene, and if the tide is low it's easy to access Praia de Lapamán or the other nearby beach. However, when the tide is very high, there's not much sand to be seen.

Galicia's beaches are truly stunning - wide and tranquil, with crystal-clear waters that can be a bit chilly in August. But the views you get from the beach bars and the sunsets you witness make up for it - it's an unforgettable experience! And the icing on the cake? The beach is covered in soft gray pebbles that give it an extra special touch.

This year the city council of Marín enabled free parking, making it much easier to enjoy this quiet beach. The sand is white and fine, and the only downside is when the tide rises, it reduces the beach to a minimum.
