Balarés Beach

Information

Praia de Balarés is often hailed as one of the best beaches in the peninsula, offering a stunning natural setting surrounded by ferns, eucalyptus forests, and pine groves. The beach is well-maintained and features numerous amenities that cater to families and picnickers alike.

  • Cleanliness and Beauty: Many users commend the beach for its cleanliness and beautiful surroundings, making it a perfect spot for relaxation.
  • Access to Facilities: The beach includes public restrooms, showers, lifeguard services during summer, and a café/restaurant right by the water, providing a convenient dining option.
  • Shade and Seating: There are plenty of tables and stone benches under large pines, ideal for a picnic in the shade.
  • Family-Friendly: Users highlight the beach as a great place for family outings, with easy access and ample parking.

However, some reviews mention that the beach can become crowded during peak seasons, and the water tends to be quite cold. Additionally, while the amenities are generally appreciated, the restaurant service has received mixed feedback, with some noting long wait times.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful beach located in a unique environment. It has a large pine forest where you can eat at its stone tables. There are several free parking areas. The beach is divided into two parts by a large dune. It has very clean public toilets. In summer, there is a lifeguard service. This service has a chair for people with reduced mobility so they can use it and bathe with it. It also has a wooden walkway to facilitate access to the beach. However, it should be noted that the water temperature is quite cold.

Fantastic experience: Very well-kept and clean beach. At the edge of the sandy area, there is a large pine grove where a good number of stone tables and benches are installed. There is a parking area, a café/restaurant right by the beach, public restrooms, and lifeguard service during the summer.

Fantastic experience: Although the beach bar and restaurant are currently closed, there is a lifeguard. It remains one of the most beautiful and clean beaches with easy access and parking. Tables among the pine trees and incredible views to spend a day with family.

Positive experience: Un lugar hermoso había mar y había arena todo lo que se puede pedir

Fantastic experience: La Praia de Balarés es una joya escondida en la Costa da Morte. Rodeada de pinares y situada al pie del Monte Branco, esta playa de arena blanca y aguas tranquilas ofrece un entorno perfecto para descansar, pasear o disfrutar en familia. Su forma de ensenada la protege del oleaje fuerte, lo que la hace ideal para bañarse con seguridad. Además de su belleza natural, el lugar tiene un valor histórico: en uno de sus extremos aún se conservan restos del embarcadero usado durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial para cargar wolframio. Esto le da un carácter único, donde se mezcla la tranquilidad del paisaje con la memoria de tiempos pasados. El acceso es sencillo, hay zonas de recreo con mesas y bancos, y un pequeño restaurante con terraza que completa la experiencia. Un sitio muy recomendable para pasar el día, desconectar y disfrutar de la Galicia más auténtica.

Fantastic experience: Una playa genial, de lo más tranquila, tiene unos pinares que dan una sombra súper fresquita, con un merendero. La arena es perfecta, y muy bonita la playa en general

Fantastic experience: Decepcionado porque llegamos y el chiringuito estaba cerrado y no era lo de hace unos años

Gorka A. 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Both are the same beach, beautiful, clean with showers, public restrooms, picnic tables in the shade of a large pine forest. A beach bar where you should eat well and cheaply for where we are. One of the best and most well-kept beaches in the area.

Fantastic experience: Very well-kept and clean beach. At the edge of the sandy area, there is a large pine grove where a good number of stone tables and benches are installed. There is a parking area, a café/restaurant right by the beach, public restrooms, and lifeguard service during the summer.
