Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa de Portazuelos (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 Portazuelos (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 Portazuelos 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.

The beach is not accessible at the moment (Aug 22) due to construction work. It's a shame about the beautiful nature.

It is not the typical beach to swim and spend the day with children. It is very calm and quiet. You have to be careful since the descent is through sandy terrain and if done in a regular car it can slip. You can find remains that I believe come from an old factory very close by.

Good place to fish. Difficult access by car (you can go down) but without sand. Pressed factory remains form the floor.

Impressive place It looks like a lunar landscape. You go down by car and if you are an angler, good fishing spots. There are plenty of xargo and pinto or maragota

Good place to fish and have a good time. Access to the beach but dangerous descent. It is not a swimming area.
