Guadamía Beach
Information
Guadamía Beach is a stunning tucked-away spot nestled between two cliffs, offering picturesque views and a unique experience in Asturias. This small stretch of sand transforms dramatically with the tides, especially during low tide when a natural pool reveals itself, making it a perfect play area for families and children.
While the access may be a bit challenging, requiring a walk from parking that is some distance away, the effort is rewarded by breathtaking landscapes and tranquility. It is less crowded during off-peak times, allowing visitors to enjoy the serene surroundings.
Highlights:
- Incredible scenery and landscapes.
- Ideal for families, especially during low tide.
- Proximity to the Bufones de Pría, offering additional natural attractions.
- Access to the beach via wooden steps or walking along the river.
Points to consider:
- Limited facilities and parking can be challenging, especially in busy seasons.
- The beach diminishes considerably during high tide.
- Visitors should be mindful of the currents and the water quality.

Positive experience: Perfect place. Beach sheltered from the sea waves. It has a bar. The only downside is the parking. Either far away or very limited close by.
Fantastic experience: It's definitely worth going. Spectacular. It has parking and then you walk from there.
Fantastic experience: Together with the Cuevas del Mar Beach, the most beautiful beach in Asturias!!! The road to get there is unfortunately very inconvenient. We left the car on a cliff overlooking the sea about a 10-minute walk to some fantastic wooden stairs that lead directly to the beach! Even here, being May, we were completely alone for a while taking wonderful pictures. Nearby we did not find any services (but we didn't need them because our intention was to stay for a short time and then move elsewhere), but not far away, easily reachable on foot, are the Bufones de Pría!
Fantastic experience: Very nice beach connecting with a river. Free parking + descent down the stairs.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular! You have to see it at high tide and low tide. They form two absolutely different landscapes. They have now put a restaurant before the access to the beach, but I recommend going through the access of the recreational area. They have tables with benches that make an improvised lunch one of the best experiences of the trip.

Positive experience: Very beautiful beach, with a lot of sand that goes between two mountains. It’s supposed to be no dogs allowed, but people bring them anyway. If you go during the off-season, make sure to take something to take off your shoes because you'll have to wet your feet to see the beach.
Fantastic experience: Perfect place. Visited in low season and it was amazing, but it seems that in high season, besides not allowing dogs, there is very little space.
Fantastic experience: Un lugar precioso, pena que no admitan perros y solo la hayamos podido ver de paso
Fantastic experience: Lugar espectacular. Cuando no es temporada de baños se puede ir con perros. Al lado los bufones de pria! Todo un expectaculo de la naturaleza!

If you go during the off-season, make sure to take something to take off your shoes because you'll have to wet your feet to see the beach.
Fantastic experience: It's a beautiful beach between narrow cliffs that form a natural entrance. You have to take advantage of the low tide because the high tide leaves the beach without sand.
Positive experience: Fantastic and small beach located in the municipality of Llanes. Due to its access and its surroundings, hidden in a small inlet, it is a contrast to the usual beaches with a lot of sand and the sea next to it... It's not like that here... You will have to swim navigating through an inlet to the sea, seeing the wooded heights and the green of Asturias. At its cliff's end are the bufones of Pría, where you can hear the sound of the Cantabrian Sea rising through those natural caves and see the foam geysers that are generated at great height and at high tide. I recommend going in spring, because in summer and with good weather, it's almost impossible to find a spot or parking. You will repeat, like I did, for sure!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fantastic experience: one of the most beautiful beaches! in the morning the tide is low and there's plenty of sand, in the afternoon it rises and looks like a pool. Really magical
Fantastic experience: En la arena no se puede estar Porq te sientas y te mojas jajaja y si pones la toalla se moja tu toalla

Fantastic experience: Just abans d'arribar als bufons. Tot i que hi havia gent, sents que hi ha un espai per tu, i connectes amb la naturalesa, si vols. És una "platja" on s'uneix un riu amb el mar. Avui 9 d'agost hi havia molt poca aigua del riu, i forces espais de sorra per tothom al llarg del camí del riu a trobar el mar. Hi ha una dutxa a l'entrada/sortida de dos sortidors alts i un pels peus (que no funcionava massa bé). A la zona, a prop, hi ha forces restaurants.
Fantastic experience: Preciosa playa, acceso con escalera y Chiringuito al lado. Parking a unos 800 metros.
Fantastic experience: Playa acantilada y larga,muy tendida,que es en realidad la desembocadura de un río,que se llena y vacía con las mareas.Es preciosa,muy recomendada para niños y de playa Recoleta,con chiringuito muy cercano pero en el que hay que reservar con mucha antelación
Positive experience: Playa perteneciente a Poo de Llanes que se encuentra al final de un estuario lo cual la protege bastante del embate de las olas. En marea baja tiene una buena playa y es muy fácil para niños pues no cubre mucho y te puedes adentrar bastante sin ningún riesgo. Tiene un servicio de ducha y dos restaurantes al lado que facilitan el no ir muy cargados.

Positive experience: Es pequeña. Una ensanada alargada. Muy difícil de llegar. Tiene ducha, pero no socorrista. El agua azul, muy tranquila. Con marea alta a penas queda playa. Un rincón pintoresco de Asturias. Muy cerca están los bufones, que hay que visitas con marea alta, y mar brava, para disfrutarlos de verdad. El aparcamiento, es gratis, pero algo alejado. Pero es una gran idea para evitar el atasco de vehículos. Un enclave que no te puedes perder en la costa entre Ribadesella y Llanes.
Negative experience: La playa es muy coqueta, pero solo para la foto... porque si lo que buscas es una playa donde coger sol en la toalla para luego adentrarte y darte un chapuzon... esta no es tu playa... desde la orilla hasta casi llegar a los roques al fondo el agua no sobrepasa la cintura... dejando tus pertenencias demasiado lejos y arriesgandote que te roben. La recomiendo si quieres ir con niños y tener la seguridad de que no se van ahogar. Pero para darse un buen chapuzon... pues no...
Fantastic experience: Preciosa!! Desembocadura del río Guadamia. Se inunda con la marea cada 6 horas aprox. Al bajar el agua deja una extensa playa con agua de río tranquila y transparente. Al fondo podrás bañarte entre las paredes de acantilados. No hay socorrista. Hay una ducha a la entrada. Arriba los Bufones de Pria. Un sitio muy especial. Si vas, cuídalo.

Fantastic experience: Small nest beach next to the bufones of Pria. It's quite small, at low tide it almost has no water.
Fantastic experience: Only at low tide and with little river flow can this beach be seen. In this area, the fresh water from the river mixes with the salty water from the sea. When flooded, it looks like a natural pool.
Negative experience: Fuimos por la tarde y al estar la marea alta ya no había playa. Además el agua estaba llena de papeles y basura. Nos fuimos sin bañarnos
Fantastic experience: Espectacular playa en la desembocadura del rio Aguadamía.
Fantastic experience: Se accede a través del agua hasta poder alcanzar la arena de la playa. Poco aparcamiento. No está muy concurrido. Se pueden ver cuevas y acantilados. Bien indicada

Fantastic experience: Spectacular!!!
Fantastic experience: Incredible landscape. Definitely worth the visit. Recommended at low tide to enjoy the walk that later gets submerged.
Fantastic experience: You have to see this beach at least once in your life.

Fantastic experience: It's a beautiful beach between narrow cliffs that form a natural entrance. You have to take advantage of the low tide because the high tide leaves the beach without sand.
Positive experience: It's not a comfortable beach, it's small, there are many currents. It's for a quick dip and then leave. Very beautiful landscape.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular! You have to see it at high tide and low tide. They form two absolutely different landscapes. They have now put a restaurant before the access to the beach, but I recommend going through the access of the recreational area.

Fantastic experience: Hidden but beautiful beach. Access is by foot. With low tide, you have to walk quite a bit to reach the sea. As you go in, on the left, there are some little stone steps that lead to the upper part, the cliffs, with some stunning photographs. We did them at sunset. Not very crowded.

Positive experience: On the way to see the Bufones de Pria, we saw this small beach nestled between some not very high cliffs. The river flows into this place; the scenery is ideal, as are the views from above. There is quite a steep slope to go down. When the tide goes out, you can cross from one side to the other. The photos accompany.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, something unique
Fantastic experience: The tide goes up and down and it creates a spectacle, very calm and beautiful.
Positive experience: Small beach at the mouth of the Guadamía River. Ideal for little ones and to relax in the area. It has beautiful views and is next to the blowholes, with an easy and short path that ends/begins there. The only downside is that at low tide, you have to go quite a bit further to swim, but the place is great.
Fantastic experience: one of the most beautiful beaches! in the morning the tide is low and there's plenty of sand, in the afternoon it rises and looks like a pool. Really magical
Fantastic experience: Amazing beach. Great for kids and family to play in the water. You can walk pretty far out without worry of current or riptide. Go early in the morning to make sure you can get parking. You will have to walk a bit from the car to the beach.
Positive experience: Some beach was available during our visit, but some smelly seaweed. A good idea to look up tides to enjoy either the beach or the bufones. We made a quick stop but we would love to see at other tide times.
