That place is a wild and untamed place, with no regard for safety. It's not a place for swimming, as the waves and currents can be unpredictable and hazardous. Those looking for a peaceful day at the beach should find somewhere else to go.

Definitely not the place for swimming due to its high risk factor. However, if you're looking for a place to relax in the sun, this beach is perfect for that! If you're interested in seeing the cave that is located on the right side of the beach, be sure to visit when the tide is low so you can access it. Parking is limited to two cars only, so plan accordingly. When you arrive, take the path to the right, as the other will take you elsewhere. Lastly, please remember to keep the beach clean!

Fisterra beach is a breathtakingly wild and wonderful place, but unfortunately it is marred by the garbage brought in by the sea and the lack of civility of some visitors. Swimming is not recommended due to the strong waves and the abundance of algae. On the right side, however, is a stunning cave. Let's hope the local authorities will take action to clean up the area and provide more garbage bins, as this is a truly special natural spot.

Arnela beach offers an incredible sunset view, and the people are friendly. It's only a 15-minute walk away from the city center of Fisterra. However, the waves and current can be dangerous, so be careful as there is no lifeguard or rescue service on this beach. Additionally, there are no amenities such as showers, a bar, or drinking water, and the sand is white.
