Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa de Monellos (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 Monellos (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 Monellos 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.

A place I had never seen before. Pure nature with a divine path to walk down, however, it is full of garbage, fishermen's nets, plastic and dirt. If someone reads this, let them take the same thing that we don't and it will be a 6 star place.
