The beach was dull and lackluster. Nothing special to see here. It was a letdown for sure.

A privileged spot to witness the sea's power, as it crashes against the rocks and carves out their stunning forms - ideal for appreciating breathtaking sunsets.

People are wild about visiting Ibiza or the Caribbean, but Galicia offers a natural, wild paradise of its own with its fat sand.

I really enjoy taking my pup for a stroll around the area, and when I catch a glimpse of the beach between the rocks, it's an absolutely beautiful sight. I don't often come here for swimming, but the scenery is breathtaking. It's a great place to take a peaceful walk and admire the view.

This location is an ideal spot for a relaxing day out. It's peaceful and stunningly gorgeous, but unfortunately, when the tide is low, the waters can be full of algae, making it hard to swim.
