Silence Beach or Gaviero
Information
Playa del Silencio, also known as El Gavieru, is a stunning beach located in the Cudillero region of Asturias, Spain. Visitors are often captivated by the breathtaking views and the feeling of tranquility that the area exudes. However, there are some challenges that potential visitors should be aware of:
- Access: The access to the beach can be difficult, with steep paths and a long walk from the parking area, which charges a fee of around 3 euros.
- Parking: While there are paid parking options, many visitors find it more convenient to park along the road, which may lead to congestion and possible delays.
- Facilities: The beach lacks amenities such as beach bars or showers, meaning visitors should plan accordingly.
- Beach Composition: The beach is composed mainly of rocks rather than sand, which some find uncomfortable for walking or lounging.
Despite these drawbacks, many agree that the scenic beauty and the unique rock formations are well worth the effort, and it remains a highly recommended spot for nature lovers.

Fantastic experience: Very nice view. We did not go down to the beach, but a walk on a top was very nice. Parking near the beach is 3 €.
Fantastic experience: Like in Patagonia! When you are there, you can understand why this beach is regularly crowned as the most beautiful Spanish beach. The descent is quick, the path and the stairs are simple. The beach is made up of pebbles, just like in Nice, for example. Some people mention this for some reason. This makes the water wonderfully clear, and the waves make the pebbles roll. The perfect soundtrack to the natural spectacle. Arrival: the approach and parking already provide a second adrenaline rush. Actually, it is quite a narrow dirt road that leads down. Unfortunately, this does not rule out the possibility of vehicles coming towards you in the wrong direction. It is also not guaranteed that you will find a parking space at the bottom. The state should actually completely ban access here and offer a larger parking lot at the top. Walking would be better. Then the magic of the place would be even greater. Conclusion: 1 magical place that justifies a longer detour. An absolute highlight on the Atlantic, especially at sunset. Top site!
Fantastic experience: A discovery!! And VERY ACCESSIBLE BOTH BY CAR AND ON FOOT
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach. My wife and I visited on 24 Oct and parking was easy, close to the start of the walk down to the beach. The walk down to the beach was very pleasant because the zig-zag path down to the beach was well-designed.
Fantastic experience: We wanted to drive to the parking lot at Silence Beach at night to spend the night there, but we decided against it when we got there. It kind of had the vibe of the movie 'The Hills Have Eyes'. The road there is a narrow one-way street that goes through fields, forests, and a small village that was also quite eerie at night. The parking spots marked on Google Maps do not exist, only this uneven parking bay for about 6-10 vehicles over Silence Beach. The next morning we drove there again. The feeling was definitely more relaxed, yet it still had something mystical. From the parking lot to the beach, there are several stairs to go down, we took about 10 minutes. It is a rocky beach with somewhat higher waves. It is rather unsuitable for swimming, but it is worth it for a small hike.

Fantastic experience: Preciosa playa a la que puedes ir con perros Si vais a pasar el día id con escarpines y esterilla ya que es toda de piedras
Fantastic experience: Lugar maravilloso para disfrutar de las calma y de la naturaleza en estado salvaje, recomiendo calzado cómodo es un recorrido de 10 minutos hasta llegar a la playa, dejar el coche en el parking que te cuesta 2€ todo el día luego caminar el sendero que te lleva hacia abajo y luego unas escaleras de casi 50 escalones o más , tener cuidado en la subida y bajada las barandillas son inestables, tened cuidado con los más pequeños o mascotas es algo peligroso, cuando lleguen abajo si tienen escarpines pongaselos ya que la playa es de cantos rodados y piedra de gran dimensión, algas en estado de descomposición lo cual eso atrae a los pequeños insectos. Cuando vayan a bañarse el agua está fría, mantengan puestos los escarpines os ayudarán a manteneros "seguros" dentro del agua para evitar roces con piedras o algo así, disfruten las estancia
Positive experience: Un lugar espectacular. Hasta la zona se llega por una carretera de un solo sentido. Antes de llegar a esta carretera te encuentras un parking que te cobran 5€ el día. Muchas personas que van dejan el coche en los laterales de esta carretera. Lo recomiendo 100%. Nosotros fuimos con nuestros dos perros.
Fantastic experience: Lugar increíble, lo malo son las piedras, no hay arena. mascotas bienvenidas
Fantastic experience: Bellísima playa con una energía espectacular. Disfruté desde el momento en que empezamos a bajar con el coche para llegar a ella, atravesando el típico paisaje de bosque asturiano. Después hay que dejar el coche donde se pueda, para ir bajando a pie el camino y después las escaleras de piedra. Pero está muy bien porque hay instalada una barandilla. Las vistas desde arriba son maravillosas y una vez abajo seguí disfrutando de esta calmada y encantadora playa. Recomiendo llevar calzado de agua, pues es una playa de piedras y así se anda más cómodo. El agua es cristalina y cubre en seguida. Es una playa que admite perros todo el año, por lo que disfruté muchísimo con mis perrines y ellos encantados y relajados.

Fantastic experience: Nice beach with some good views very steep down to beach which is all stones and hard to walk on if you have dodgy ankles or knees
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful, stones and rocks, incredible sunset
Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in Asturias!! You should keep in mind that it is a stony beach and that it takes about 15 minutes to get there from the parking. There is no beach bar down there and no services either, but the views are worth it.
Fantastic experience: A beautiful place with water just like the Caribbean but colder. Pebble beach.
Positive experience: A hidden gem that is worth the 'walk' to get there. Picture-postcard perfect. The beach isn't sandy, it's pebbly. There are many rocks that make swimming difficult. But the privileged location, the feeling of wild freedom, and the incredible views more than make up for these small inconveniences. There are no beach bars on or near the beach. There are 2 parking lots, although many people leave their cars near the path down. Water shoes are a must.

Fantastic experience: Playa del Silencio – Asturias Una auténtica joya natural del litoral asturiano. Hace honor a su nombre: tranquilidad total, sin construcciones, rodeada de acantilados y con el sonido del mar como único fondo. Cómo llegar: Desde el pueblo de Castañeras. Hay un pequeño parking gratuito (se llena rápido en verano). Luego se baja caminando unos 10-15 minutos por un sendero en buen estado, aunque no es apto para personas con movilidad reducida. La playa: No es de arena, sino de cantos rodados. El agua es cristalina y no hay servicios ni socorristas. Ideal para desconectar, hacer fotos increíbles o bañarse si el mar está tranquilo. No hay chiringuitos ni baños, ¡prepárate! Consejos prácticos: Lleva zapatillas de agua o buen calzado No olvides agua y algo de comer El atardecer es espectacular Es un entorno protegido: no dejes basura Una playa diferente, salvaje y espectacular. Si estás recorriendo la costa asturiana, es parada obligatoria.
Fantastic experience: La Playa del Silencio, ubicada en el concejo de Cudillero, Asturias, es un rincón natural que hace honor a su nombre. Esta joya del litoral cantábrico es, sin duda, una de las playas más impresionantes y vírgenes del norte de España. Rodeada de acantilados imponentes y vegetación salvaje, la playa ofrece un paisaje espectacular que parece sacado de una postal. Sus aguas son cristalinas y de un azul profundo, perfectas para relajarse, nadar o simplemente contemplar la belleza natural. La ausencia de servicios turísticos (no hay chiringuitos, duchas ni socorristas) contribuye a mantener su atmósfera tranquila y casi mística, ideal para quienes buscan desconexión total y contacto puro con la naturaleza. El acceso no es inmediato —hay que caminar unos 10-15 minutos por un sendero desde el aparcamiento más cercano—, pero el esfuerzo se ve ampliamente recompensado. Una vez abajo, la sensación de paz es absoluta: solo se escucha el romper de las olas y el canto de las aves. Recomendada especialmente para los amantes del paisaje, la fotografía, el senderismo y quienes valoran los espacios no masificados, la Playa del Silencio es un auténtico refugio de calma y belleza. Un lugar para recordar… y volver. **Puntuación: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)** **Ideal para:** Escapadas tranquilas, naturaleza, fotografía, desconexión total.
Negative experience: Dangerous and long access, beach that disappears with the tide, no beach bar or services at the beach, the photos are very beautiful though, just like any of the 1000 places we have in Asturias, not worth it.

Positive experience: Playa muy bonita en un entorno privilegiado. Hay dos zonas para aparcar de pago en el pueblo. La primera a dos euros la segunda a tres. Hay que ir con una zapatilla cómoda para el paseo. Indica 11 minutos. Bajando la montaña y luego escaleras. La playa es de cantos rodados. No hay nada. Sí vas a pasar el día lleva comida y bebida. No socorristas. No aora para personas con movilidad reducida. Muy bonita, la bajada bien, la subida... no tan bien

Fantastic experience: Lindíssima. Parece ser dificil acesso, mas não é. Na descida tem muitas pedrinhas que escorregam ideal que estejam de tenis pra maior aderência e segurança, o acesso a praia é por escada o que facilita muito. Essa praia é de pedra o que acaba machucando os pés, então venham preparados.
Fantastic experience: Una playa preciosa a la que se accede con una breve caminata de 10 minutos desde el parking, que recientemente han habilitado para evitar que los coches bloqueen el paso. Las vistas desde el camino de acceso son espectaculares, y excepto el mes de agosto, es una playa muy tranquila. No tiene socorrista. Además es un lugar perfecto para practicar buceo y paddle Surf.

Positive experience: Such a beautiful day with the view. The rock formation of mountains looks a bit like elephants face if you zoom in.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful, stones and rocks, incredible sunset

Fantastic experience: The Playa del Silencio, near Oviedo, is a true refuge for those seeking calm and peace in its highest expression. This hidden corner of the Asturian coast captivates with its stunning natural beauty: a landscape of crystal-clear waters surrounded by high cliffs, where the only soundtrack is the gentle murmur of the sea. Without buildings or crowds, this place conveys a deep sense of serenity. The contrast between the rocks and the ocean creates a spectacular view, perfect for disconnecting and reconnecting with nature. Undoubtedly, an essential destination for those who value tranquility and contact with the essentials.

Fantastic experience: It's the most natural beach in Asturias, when you bathe in its waters you are surrounded by marine life, ideal for snorkeling or diving. The only downside is the **** tourism, with tourists filling everything with trash... Thankfully, the committed locals clean the beach every now and then. Nice experience, but throw the trash in your backpack if you forgot the bag, gua***!
Fantastic experience: Estuve ayer día 11 agosto de 2023 increíble el agua cristalina se podía hacer snorkel lo único malo es el acceso tienes que llegar pronto puedes aparcar en una zona pagando peor puedes aparcar gratis en la misma carretera
Fantastic experience: Esta playa es una pasada e ido varias veces y esta ultima incluso con lluvia, tiene unos acantilados cuarciticos muy bonitos. En verano acondicionan algún prado para aparcar antes de llegar a ella aunque yo siempre me acerco en el coche (me ahorro de caminar entre 10 o 15 minutos)porque en los márgenes de la carretera suele tener sitio para aparcar ya que la carretera es de sentido único y la salida se hace de forma circular. Es una playa de piedra, tiene un mirador por si solo te apece ir a dar un paseo y no bajar a la ensenada porque para bajar tiene escaleras y luego hay que subirlas. Es de aguas tranquilas ( es la cuenta para hacer snorkel) a la vez que salvaje el paisaje, como ya dije anteriormente de roca(aconsejó llevar calzado adecuado para poder entrar al agua)al final de la playa es nudista y si sigues caminando un poquito más pasas a otra playa llamada ribera del molin por donde le sale entre las rocas una pequeña cascada, cuidadin que no suba la marea si la visitas, ( al volver costaría trabajo) mejor en marea baja. Se me olvidaba hay otro añadido más, antes de bajar al silencio desde el mirador o sea a nuestras espalda hay un caminito para dar un paseo muy chulo, pasas por encima de un riachuelo, caminas por un prado, al final llegas a una caseta donde se tienen unas vistas muy chulas…hace años había un tronco por donde se bajaba a unas playas virgenes, igual ahora se lo llevaron las mareas y bueno, no se puede acceder pero el sitio es bonito igual mente. Espero te sirva la reseña y pases muy buen día por la zona Saludo Esta muy cerca el pueblo de Cudillero que dicen es uno de los pueblos más bonitos de Asturias
Positive experience: A decir verdad, las vistas son espectaculares, se puede apreciar el relieve. Pero luego más que playa, lo que es, es una acumulación de sedimentos. No hay arena, son rocas/piedras, por lo que hay que ir con zapatos adaptados. Hay algas por todas partes que dan un poco de asco. Sin embargo, es ideal para snorkel.
Fantastic experience: Amazing place to swimming and snorkelling

Las vistas desde el camino de acceso son espectaculares, y excepto el mes de agosto, es una playa muy tranquila. No tiene socorrista. Además es un lugar perfecto para practicar buceo y paddle Surf.
Positive experience: Cómo playa es muy mala, tanto para el baño como para tomar el sol o practicar cualquier actividad física que no sea el buceo. Con marea alta se transforma en una estrecha franja de cantos rodados como patatas de gordos, tienes que usar calzado dentro y fuera del agua si no quieres hacerte daño en los pies. Con marea baja las numerosas rocas dificultan el baño. La proximidad del acantilado hace de pantalla, incrementando la acción del sol y sin sombra, te puedes cocer. El paisaje ESPECTACULAR
Fantastic experience: IMPRESCINDIBLE en la visita a Asturias. Merece la penas desviarse lo necesario. Un hermoso lugar donde pasar un rato o el día en calma, buceando, nadando, bañándote o simplemente escuchando el silencio del mar. Hay cuevas preciosas para la aventura y el buceo!

Silence Beach or Gaviero: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Very nice view. We did not go down to the beach, but a walk on a top was very nice. Parking near the beach is 3 €.
Fantastic experience: Definetly worth a visit
Positive experience: Such a beautiful day with the view. The rock formation of mountains looks a bit like elephants face if you zoom in.
Fantastic experience: Nice beach with some good views very steep down to beach which is all stones and hard to walk on if you have dodgy ankles or knees
Fantastic experience: Fantastic beach with incredible views and a place to relax by the sea.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful, stones and rocks, incredible sunset
Negative experience: There have been many disappearances there, as the reason why something was pulling people toward the depths of the sea leads to many cases of people going missing, so I rate it a 1/10.

Fantastic experience: It is an incredible place
Fantastic experience: Beautiful.
Positive experience: A beauty of peace and tranquility (increasingly less so). If it weren't for the climb that left me breathless, I would have given it 5 stars.
Fantastic experience: A discovery!! And VERY ACCESSIBLE BOTH BY CAR AND ON FOOT
Fantastic experience: We went in winter so we didn't pay anything, we walked in great weather, saw the cliffs and the breathtaking nature, a wild and pristine environment that is worth exploring.
Fantastic experience: A peaceful and charming place
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach. My wife and I visited on 24 Oct and parking was easy, close to the start of the walk down to the beach. The walk down to the beach was very pleasant because the zig-zag path down to the beach was well-designed.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful place
Fantastic experience: A place to disconnect from everything. Beautiful views. I recommend sitting for at least 10 minutes without thinking about anything.
Fantastic experience: We wanted to drive to the parking lot at Silence Beach at night to spend the night there, but we decided against it when we got there. It kind of had the vibe of the movie 'The Hills Have Eyes'. The road there is a narrow one-way street that goes through fields, forests, and a small village that was also quite eerie at night.

Fantastic experience: Perfect day, first a walk and food in Cudillero, and then a stroll through these countries that the Beach of Silence offers us. Not much silence since the sea is heard!! Perfect day
Negative experience: Dangerous and long access, beach that disappears with the tide, no beach bar or services at the beach, the photos are very beautiful though, just like any of the 1000 places we have in Asturias, not worth it.
Fantastic experience: Good visit
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach, the only thing is the parking that didn't convince me. It turns out they charge you 3 euros but you have to go back for the car and you pass right by the same viewpoint that you went down before.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful place, luckily since the weather was not good there were no people, pure air, beautiful beach and cliffs in the middle of nature.
Positive experience: The scenery is beautiful, but the beach is extremely uncomfortable. You can't walk or sit or lie down and feel comfortable. So much fame for such a little thing.
Positive experience: Beautiful, but not enough to compensate for how far they make you park and the climb up a goat path. They tell you that parking (€3) is mandatory, and then you see a lot of cars parked on the shoulder much closer to the beach.
Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in Asturias!! You should keep in mind that it is a stony beach and that it takes about 15 minutes to get there from the parking. There is no beach bar down there and no services either, but the views are worth it.
Fantastic experience: There are two paid parking lots at €3, with no time limit, but many cars park on the side of the road, making access a bit difficult. The slopes are worth it. Bring water shoes, the beach has waves.
Fantastic experience: Several semi-wild natural beaches connected by a tourist trail. Somewhere there are stones, somewhere there is sand. The place fascinates with its views. Very cool!
Positive experience: A charming place that you will surely love
Negative experience: Incorrect toponymy, this beach is called Gavieiru.
Fantastic experience: Nice place to visit with family
Negative experience: I give it one star just to give it something. UFFFFF HORRIBLE. We came from Extremadura on vacation. You see it on Google and it looks great, but it’s a big pile of crap. On top of that, the parking attendant is a jerk who charges you €5 when it’s €3 because the company confirmed it to us. Anyway, we are now at another beach, but in better conditions: Playa Aguilar... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Much better than the Silence Beach where you break your feet! JjjJjJjJjJ
Negative experience: A complete scam, we all go like sheep following the recommendations of influencers and when you arrive, the first thing they do is charge you 3€ for a so-called parking from which you have to walk 1km downhill along a goat path. It is not a beach, it is a cliff, like the other 30 in the area and prettier ones, the beach is 40 minutes down a poorly maintained staircase and it's not even a beach. If you have time, don't waste it, 5 minutes away you have the same (or better) and accessible.
Fantastic experience: A phenomenal beach. The descent is worth it.
Negative experience: beautiful but way too crowded around it, also a lot of toilet paper ¿¡when will people learn to clean this up!?!? in the field where you can park for a fee you can easily spend the night in a car/camper but there are a lot of flies… the sunset there was fabulous! but there are so many beautiful coastal locations in northern Spain!
Fantastic experience: A beautiful place with water just like the Caribbean but colder. Pebble beach.
Fantastic experience: The beach is lovely from the viewpoint before the stairs. It's worth going! It's about 700m walking from the paid parking. However, DON'T PAY THE €3 FOR PARKING, YOU CAN PARK YOUR CAR RIGHT AT THE VIEWPOINT AND NOT PAY, IT'S A RIP-OFF FROM THE TOWN HALL.
Positive experience: The beautiful part is the views from the upper area, the beach itself is nothing special, it is rocky and the water is quite cold, and you have to walk quite a long way down and back up. To make matters worse, the neighbors now charge you €3 to leave your car, which is of questionable legality; it's better to leave the car in the first caravan parking lot, which is free and only a 5-minute walk more.
Fantastic experience: We loved it. A spectacular beach. The descent and ascent are not easy, but they are worth it.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular, you cannot miss visiting
Positive experience: A hidden gem that is worth the 'walk' to get there. Picture-postcard perfect. The beach isn't sandy, it's pebbly. There are many rocks that make swimming difficult. But the privileged location, the feeling of wild freedom, and the incredible views more than make up for these small inconveniences. There are no beach bars on or near the beach. There are 2 parking lots, although many people leave their cars near the path down. Water shoes are a must.
Fantastic experience: Magnifique ❤️

Essa praia é de pedra o que acaba machucando os pés, então venham preparados.
Fantastic experience: Playa de 10, tiene unas vistas magnificas! y es muy tranquila.
Fantastic experience: No accesible para personas con movilidad reducida. Parking gratis limitado. Pet friendly.
Fantastic experience: Hermosa!! Poco más qué decir
Fantastic experience: Un sitio impresionante y muy hermoso.
Fantastic experience: 100% recomendable. No es sólo una playa, es una experiencia increíble de relajación y desconexion en la naturaleza. Aviso de que hay que bajar un cacho de camino y escaleras pero merece la pena
Fantastic experience: Un sitio muy chulo para visitar... Hay que bajar unas escaleras un poco empinadas pero merece la pena. No es una playa de baño. Sitio para bajar pasear y relajarse. Mejor si la marea está bja
Positive experience: Desde arriba se ve muy bonita, aunque el acceso es un poco tedioso. Nos cobraron 3€ por el parking, y luego tienes que andar un poquito hacia abajo hasta llegar a la playa y el acantilado. La playa es entera de piedras grandes y al romper las olas hace bastante ruido, lo cual me pareció curioso por el nombre de la playa jajaja.
Fantastic experience: Mi visita fue más de mirar a nivel de paisaje me gustó mucho, disfruté lo verde que te ofrece el panorama con la playa habían personas bañándose como dice el nombre de la playa mucho silencio y tranquilidad recomiendo la visita
Fantastic experience: Asombrado de este paisaje, la combinación de bosques con playa es de película. Estoy encantado con este lugar, pasear por la orilla buscando rocas que parecen joyas es mágico, la playa está llena de rocas erosionadas con mil formas. El agua aunque está fresquita es un must darse un baño que repara cuerpo y alma. Puedes casi bajar en coche al lugar si vas temprano, si ya consideras ir después de las 12 mi consejo es que aparques en los parkings que están más arriba y vayas caminando ya que el espacio es limitado. Es un lugar al que ir si visitas Asturias.
Positive experience: Playa muy bonita. Pero no esperes encontrar la imagen que sale en las fotos. Deben estar hechas con un dron.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful but be careful with the descent down the stairs, it's safe but if you have vertigo.
Fantastic experience: One of the most beautiful beaches in Asturias. A quiet place accessible by car.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach that is well lit by the sun in the evening and morning. You can go down to the water, or walk along the upper edge.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful place with turquoise blue colors
Positive experience: Incredible views, during the season it's impossible to park and not very well signposted.
Fantastic experience: An impressive place, about 10 km from Cudillero. If you pass nearby, you should stop by to see it.
Fantastic experience: It is one of the many beaches that luckily you can find along the coast of Asturias, each one has its charm, and this one does not disappoint at all. We entered through Novellana, instead of doing it through Castañeras, which you can reach by car up to about 300 meters before the beach and walk the rest. And through Novellana, we couldn't get down to the bottom, but on the contrary, the views from above are spectacular and the tranquility and silence that reigned live up to its name. If you are going to be in the area or visiting the surroundings, don't miss it...
Fantastic experience: It was rather foggy during our visit, yet an impressive place
Fantastic experience: A truly stunning landscape, fantastic for taking photos, this place gives a lot of peace, there are free animals so you will really feel like you are in the middle of nature.
Fantastic experience: Magnificent.
Positive experience: Beach full of mysticism and mystery. There was no sand area but it is very beautiful.
Fantastic experience: My oh my. What a beach ❤️
Fantastic experience: Amazing.. tough hike and stairs, but always yes and worth it. What a wonder!!
Fantastic experience: Stunning view
Fantastic experience: A corner of paradise.. truly stunning! The feeling is like being immersed in a fairytale, some views resemble prehistoric landscapes! To reach the beach, you have to walk a bit, but it is quite easy to access! It truly deserves a visit!!
Fantastic experience: Tranquility, beautiful landscape and the sea that never stops making waves, a spectacular scenery, you go on the N-632 towards Galicia and see the sign for Playa del Silencio, you take a narrow concrete path with a one-way direction, there is limited parking on the sides, you park and take a nice walk enjoying the spectacular landscape, then as I said it's one-way and you exit a bit before where you entered.
Fantastic experience: Simply stunning…
Fantastic experience: Amazing beach and cliffs. Some incredible photos and views.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful place. Wonderful views. To access the beach, you have to go down (and up) a few stairs.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular beach to visit at any time, it's worth stopping if we are on the highway. Highly recommended to visit the area in general, viewpoints and cliffs.
Fantastic experience: Just magnificent
Fantastic experience: Magnificent. A good steep descent (which of course you'll have to climb back up at the end!) but it's worth the effort. I will come back. There is a paid parking at the beginning of the trail, but since it was stormy, we were able to park for free by the side of the road.
Fantastic experience: Something incredible to admire from multiple viewpoints. Huge rocks plunging into a calm, silent ocean, almost sheltered from the wind. Something difficult to describe, exciting to experience and see. If you come in a camper: You can reach it with a camper up to 7 meters! Very little space along the way, but you can pass and park sideways. Halfway there is a small square where you can also decide how to position yourself. The view is top! The stress of getting there is worth it. If you find a flat spot, you can also sleep. Access to Playa via a long and comfortable staircase. No bins. Just wild.
Fantastic experience: It is a beautiful and well-maintained pebble beach, you can park in the village's parking lot, paying of course, or you can go along the path and park on the side of the road.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular views. To get to the beach, you have to walk down a dirt path and then go down about 100 steps. There is hardly any sand, mostly it's stones.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful place to go at any time of the year
Fantastic experience: It's the most natural beach in Asturias, when you bathe in its waters you are surrounded by marine life, ideal for snorkeling or diving. The only downside is the **** tourism, with tourists filling everything with trash... Thankfully, the committed locals clean the beach every now and then. Nice experience, but throw the trash in your backpack if you forgot the bag, gua***!
Fantastic experience: Amazing beach, and yes, it's pretty quiet
Negative experience: Beach with quite poor vehicle access, many slopes, and tight parking spots, on dirt and not well-maintained surroundings. The descent is quite good with a handrail. On the other hand, the same stones can be uncomfortable at times.
Fantastic experience: Wild views and great beach, the descent is cool, but the ascent is heart-stopping.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular place. The access is easy with a one-way road.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful pebble beach. The sound of the sea retreating after a wave is special. I recommend visiting it.
Positive experience: Beautiful place. 1* If you have two signposted parking lots that are not free, why do you allow vehicle access all the way to the stairs leading down to the beach? Aren't they regulated? 2" It costs very little to place one or two trash cans at the foot of the access stairs to the beach, both on the way down and on the way up, so that users, with very good judgment, do not have to leave trash in a pile. What is the parking money for?
Fantastic experience: Stunning views, recommended to plan a visit during low tides. There is a parking lot, although you can easily park the car for free further down.
Fantastic experience: Amazing beach, with a spectacular landscape full of cliffs. It has a special charm and the sound of the waves breaking is unique.
Fantastic experience: I couldn't enjoy a swim because we arrived late and it started to rain. But it's one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever known.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with crystal clear water. The beach is made of pebbles, and you can park on the side before the descent to the beach. The descent has quite a few stones, but it is not complicated at all.
Positive experience: Very beautiful beach and relatively easy to access. However, the slope to go up and down is quite long and steep. There is a parking lot about 5-10 minutes walking that costs €2 and can be paid with bizum. Otherwise, further down there is also space for many cars on the same shoulder.
Fantastic experience: Precise pebble beach. You leave the car a 15-minute walk away. I recommend it because parking is 3 euros and you don't risk leaving your car on the edge of a cliff on the roadside.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful stony beach, cool water but not crowded. The access to the beach has some slopes and stairs, going down is great .. but the return is tough.
Fantastic experience: Just astonishingly beautiful and well worth the treck down the very narrow access track
Fantastic experience: One of the nicest beaches in Spain.
Fantastic experience: Magnificent and peaceful place that you must go if you went to Asturias , one of the best places to go
Fantastic experience: This is one of the most amazing places I have ever been in my life. Nature, untouched by man, brings an incredible sense of peace to your soul. I felt infinitesimal in this incredible place. We visited in the fall of 2019 and there was no one at this place. I could sit here for hours and listen to the sound of the rocks moving back and forth in the water. If you have a chance and love nature, this is a definite must see.
Fantastic experience: people are worried about parking. but I'm happy that cars aren't there.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful views, however as it is a pebble beach - not the most comfortable to have a day at the beach
