Beaches in Asturias with a kids playground
La EntradaLlanes, Asturias
Finding La Entrada beach is rather easy, most of the beaches in the municipality of Llanes being quite accessible, with parking, amenities, some of them urban and surrounded by bars, restaurants and accommodation. La Entrada (also known as La Barra beach) is not an exception, the only thing that might confuse you is that it’s […]
PenarrondaCastropol, Asturias
You will find this beach under two names: Penarronda or Peñarronda, both referring to the river that flows here into the sea (the Peñarronda river) and the impressive pierced rock that you can see in the middle of the beach (with low tide, it’s in the water with high tide). The rock, as many others […]
Santa GadeaTapia de Casariego, Asturias

The result is the transformation of a cove that […]

PonienteGijón, Asturias
Poniente beach has also a second name: Natahoyo and a story. And that’s because this beach was artificially created to improve an area known as El Fomento located by the shipyards that still exist in some extend nearby. That happened around 1994 and supposed a complete change of the neighborhood: the beach and the promenade […]
EspasaCaravia, Asturias
There’s a lot to say about Espasa beach and even more to see and enjoy there. Where should I start from? It’s one of the most famous beaches of Caravia so it is easy to find, mostly because the national road N-632 was built right to its side. It has a huge parking with a […]
