Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, immaculate. We visited end of September and no one was here. So even better. No dogs allowed on beach so we walked some of the trail. Lovely picnic area beside the carpark.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, immaculate. We visited end of September and no one was here. So even better. No dogs allowed on beach so we walked some of the trail. Lovely picnic area beside the carpark.
Negative experience: Beautiful beach but does not allow dogs.
Fantastic experience: It is one of the best beaches I have seen, not because it is beautiful but because of all the services it has. It has showers, bathrooms, changing rooms, a beachside restaurant, a little but nice promenade; it just lacks admitting dogs.
Negative experience: Beautiful but there are signs that dogs are not allowed
Negative experience: Beautiful beach. With the characteristics of the area. Including a beach bar. There is a prohibition for dogs, but unfortunately some ignore the indication. Just yesterday, a dog urinated on the towels of two small children and the dog's owner left without more. The day before yesterday, another loose dog similar... I insist that the beach is beautiful. On sunny summer days, parking gets full quickly.

Fantastic experience: Beach to enjoy walking on the sand with low tide
Positive experience: Beautiful beach with fine sand and a gentle slope that gains many meters at low tide. Lifeguards: giving a whistle to a fool...
Fantastic experience: Great SANDY beach, accessible by car, beautiful view and even a cafe for your beer. The water was cold for us to swim, but lying on the beach was great.
Fantastic experience: Nice and small sandy beach. Parking is tricky. The good thing is that nearby you have the viewpoint trail to visit. I experienced a strong rip current at this beach, so you have to be careful. The same happens at Salinas beach. There is a bar, showers, and good views.
Fantastic experience: Sandy beach, perfect for going with children and with access for disabled people. When the lifeguard shift ends, they notify you via loudspeaker. It's as clean as it gets. The parking costs 1€ per day per vehicle and is for the benefit of an association.

Fantastic experience: Excellent beach. Public parking €1 for cars. Beach bar, showers, and plenty of beach to enjoy.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach to go with the family. We were able to go two days and both times we had a great time. It has restrooms and showers. There's also a beach bar where you can have a refreshing drink. We paid €1 for parking.
Fantastic experience: Beach with lifeguard service, parking that has to be paid for after one hour, I don't know which one because we got there early, and beach bar, we had no problem at all, and very good, to be honest.
Fantastic experience: Great and popular beach. It has all the services and well-maintained showers, a recreational area, and a beachfront restaurant. Plenty of parking space, although it gets small for how crowded it is. You can get here to do the viewpoints route.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular beach. Parking, beach bar, amazing rocks, fine sand, water at just the right temperature, huge. Ideal for families. Small ponds form where you can leave the kids to play. Limpets, crabs, and mussels on the rocks left by the tide when it goes down... Well maintained, lifeguard station (super active and attentive). In short, a spectacular environment. It's definitely worth visiting.
Fantastic experience: Aguilar Beach is one of the most iconic beaches in Asturias. It is located in the council of Muros de Nalón, about 4 kilometers from the town of Cudillero. The beach is about 500 meters long and about 25 meters wide. The sand is fine and golden, and the water is crystal clear. The beach is surrounded by rocks and cliffs, which gives it a spectacular appearance. The beach is well equipped, with showers, sinks, paid parking, and a beach bar. There is also a lifeguard service that is active during the summer season. In my opinion, Aguilar Beach is a spectacular and beautiful beach. It is an ideal place to enjoy nature and water sports. I would recommend this beach to anyone visiting Asturias. It is a beach that does not disappoint. Here are some recommendations for your visit to Aguilar Beach: If you want to avoid crowds, visit the beach early or in the afternoon as the parking fills up.
Negative experience: Playa espectacular, lo malo es la cantidad de gente y coches que bajan, cada año va a peor. Y el trabajo de los socorristas difícil de entender, la bandera verde es casi imposible de ver, a poco que haya unas olas te plantan una bandera amarilla y una zona de baño ridículamente pequeña, donde bañarte es tarea imposible, asique se pondrán a pitar como locos para que des dos pasos a un lado u vuelvas a estar en línea con la banderola. Es ridículo. Y como se enfaden plantan la bandera roja y se quedan tan agusto... Es lamentable.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, immaculate. We visited end of September and no one was here. So even better. No dogs allowed on beach so we walked some of the trail. Lovely picnic area beside the carpark.
Fantastic experience: Such a nice place for a beach with the beautiful coast around. Great waves to have a bit of fun in the sea.
Negative experience: The parking is lovely, which used to be free and now is paid. I ask what kind of maintenance the parking has, and they answer me: 'everything'. What is everything? 'Cleaning, that it is monitored...'. Ahh... I understand that if they hit my car, they compensate me. If the road gets dirty, they sweep it... Well, it used to be just as good for free, sir. It's a damn piece of asphalt and grass. What a lucrative obsession, BORING. Edit: since I just went back for the car and it has rained, they're no longer working, suddenly there is no maintenance. I REITERATE!!
Fantastic experience: Very clean and well-maintained beach

Fantastic experience: Me ha encantado la playa tiene bastante oleaje con lo cual es un buen sitio para hacer deportes como el surf también las vistas son súper bonitas y el sendero de los miradores es precioso ya que sus vistas son geniales me ha encantado
Positive experience: Playa espectacular, limpia, con cuevas en las rocas y aguas limpias, ay algunos surfistas y ay un area destinada al baño. La playa se divide en dos zonas por varias rocas, en el lado más apartado no ay socorristas y es imposible que logren ver ese lado de la playa donde también ay bastantes bañistas. Con el aparcamiento pasa lo mismo, encuanto se llena el aparcamiento asfaltado que cuesta 1€ la otra opción está al otro lado y son 3€. Por terminar, solo ay aseos y duchas en uno de los lados de la playa.
Fantastic experience: Playa paisajista y con mucho oleaje. Tiene otra sección para surfistas más arriesgada.
Fantastic experience: Playa de arena dorada de 640 metros aunque incluso parezca más. En un entorno muy natural. Con bastantes servicios como parking, chiringuito o alquiler de tablas de surf y neoprenos. Buen acceso desde la población. Con sol pienso que ganarìa mucho pero bueno nublado también gusta
Positive experience: Playa perteneciente a Muros de Nalón. Cuenta con servicio de socorristas. Es de arena fina y dorada y su grado de ocupación es alto entre semana en julio. Se llega bajando la carretera bien desde Muros de Nalón o bien desde Cudillero. Tiene una pequeña desembocadura fluvial y hay que tener precaución puesto que durante la pleamar la playa queda inundada. Tiene bar/restaurante en la misma playa llamado la Vida es Bella. Es apta para surferos.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular beach with the mountains behind, when the tide goes out is when it is most enjoyable. You can entertain yourself looking for crabs among the rocks. Just be careful with the waves when the sea is rough. It is the Cantabrian Sea, not to be taken lightly.

Fantastic experience: A must-visit

Fantastic experience: Very clean and well-maintained beach
Fantastic experience: Fantastic beach with easy access and good parking for 1 euro.
Fantastic experience: It is always a wonder to enjoy this beach. I prefer to stroll along it outside of the summer season, when there are fewer people, with lower tide, and reach a few meters away from the large rock that presides over it.
Fantastic experience: One of the most popular beaches on the Cantabrian coast, located very close to Cudillero. Beautiful, not too big, flanked by lovely cliffs. Recently it has become more crowded; it used to be more family-friendly, to the point that if you don’t go early, it becomes difficult to find parking.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular in the winter
Fantastic experience: No words! It's paradise on earth!! A beautiful bar by the shore with all the amenities! With cool drinks, snacks, and restrooms.) Lifeguards are on duty at the beach! The beach is clean with clean sand, slightly clay-colored when wet. But without black specks like on some beaches. After Agilar, we don't want to go anywhere else) We tried to find another beach, thinking that nature hides something even more beautiful from us)))) but we realized that there is nothing better for us than Agilar!)))

Fantastic experience: My second time visiting this beach and it’s one of my favorites to visit in the winter
