Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa de Arnao (Asturias) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Playa de Arnao (Asturias) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Playa de Arnao for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

That place is the perfect spot to chill out! The sand is warm and inviting, and you can park your car close by. Take a leisurely stroll along the shoreline and enjoy the beauty of the coastline.

Crossing the bridge of mine is like entering a different world altogether - a magnificent paradise in the middle of Salinas. The beach bar is top notch, and the public bathrooms are a great addition. Perfect for families with small children - it gets a 10 from me. The only downside is that it can be tricky to find a parking spot, but a little patience will do the trick.

The sand is full of black particles that are almost impossible to shake off. exposed to the wandering eyes of passersby. Other than that, it's a decent place. There are foot washers, a nice view, and the sound of crashing waves. You can find stones and warm sand. On top of that, there's free parking and a museum. All in all, a decent spot.

Visiting the beach next to Las Salinas is an experience to be remembered. It has a wild point, but with a promenade, beach bar and picnic area. It's important to look at the tides in advance to make sure you don't end up stuck with only a rocky area. The beach boasts a stunning natural charm with jagged rocks behind it and mini cliffs on the sides. When the tide goes out, there's plenty of space with dark but good sand. The promenade is great for long walks and admiring the beach and coast. There's a spacious and well-kept meadow with benches and tables to relax and eat. The beach also has a chiringuito with many tables, good prices and a great atmosphere. You can also explore the route that skirts the coast to the west. There's a breakwater in the western part of the beach that is very picturesque and accessible. There are free public car parks nearby, and the Mining
