Llanes is one of the Asturian municipalities in which there are more beaches, having more than 30 spread over its 50 kilometers of coastline . Large, small, urban, lonely, very crowded, with rivers, sand, stones … there is such a variety that makes this municipality one of the best in our country if you want to enjoy the beaches and you like the variety in them. To look for a problem, this could be the temperature since the water is around 11ºC in winter and 19ºC in summer.
There are so many beaches that it is a bit complicated to be able to make a good summary without leaving some spectacular ones out, but what is clear is that the ones that I am going to recommend are undoubtedly the best and are also for very varied tastes. Take note of the best beaches in Llanes :
– Guadamía Beach : also called Aguamía Beach, it is near the town of Llames de Pría and has an irregular shape, with about 80 meters in length of fine white sand. Small but very quiet, in addition to the fact that the waters are perfect for swimming since there is no swell. It is a very rural beach, ideal if you are looking for calm.
– Cuevas del Mar Beach : it is at the mouth of the Nueva River and is beautiful thanks to the numerous cavities that the waves have formed over the years. Surrounded by cliffs, it has a spectacular natural beauty, which means that many people come to it despite being only 125 meters long.
– Playa de la Huelga : it is next to the famous castro de las Gaviotas and merges with the mouth of the San Cecilio river, which also leaves a really beautiful landscape. It is also a busy beach and is about 180 meters long.
– Playa de Torimbia : many people say that it is the most beautiful beach in Llanes and the truth is that they are right, and if it is not the most beautiful it is surely among the most beautiful. In the 1960s it became the beach that all nudists visited, which is why it became very famous. Today it is visited by all kinds of audiences thanks to a spectacular cliff of about 50 meters high that encloses it. A natural wonder.
– Playa de San Antolín : it is the largest of all that there are thanks to its 1.2 kilometers in length and more than 60 in width. In addition to being the largest, it is also one of those with the strongest swell, making it the area’s favorite for lovers of the south.
