We have come to this beach for the opinions since we don't like river beaches; I'm not sure what kind of beaches people prefer, but this one is definitely not a 4-star beach as it is rated. It is one of the best in Galicia, however the water is a murky green and you can't even see your ankles in it, full of algae and dirt. It is far from the usual standard of beaches in Galicia, more like a swamp. It does have a good car park a few meters away, so it's great for sunbathing but not much else. The views are nice, and there are showers, bathrooms and a picnic area.

A mere 10 minute drive away lies a beach with white sand so soft you'd think it was made of cotton candy.
