Fantastic experience: I believe this beach makes it to my top five list. A secluded beach with a beautiful rugged mountains drop. Spent a night in the car park with our campervan. Fresh drinking water in the tap in the car park. My boyfriend surfed. No toilets. Amazing experience.

Fantastic experience: From the beach of Rostro, you can take a hiking route to the viewpoint of Veladoiro, from where you can see Finisterre from another perspective. The route is not marked, but you can follow the trails close to the sea. More goat path than route. Good footwear and trekking poles are recommended. Challenging. But the views and the experience are worth it. You can return by road, which is much easier and faster.

Fantastic experience: Lugar muy bonito, solo alterado por los "cotizantes" no adaptados de las caravanas que siempre anidan, y esos que meten a sus perros a la playa porque sabemos lo que son... fo ya perros ...

Negative experience: Playa para pasear es mar abierto no apta para baño,pone cartel de prohibido perros y gente pasea con perros y hay sus cacas por la arena,es una pena.

Fantastic experience: Praia do Rostro – Naturaleza en estado puro Praia do Rostro es una de esas playas que impresionan por su fuerza y belleza salvaje. Arena dorada, olas potentes y un paisaje abierto sin construcciones que rompan la magia. Perfecta para caminar, contemplar el mar y dejarse envolver por la esencia pura de la Costa da Morte. Un rincón espectacular y auténtico.

Positive experience: A true delight of a beach. Long, with fine sand, clean, not overcrowded (at least when I went in mid-August). The only slightly annoying thing is the little bugs near the shore. However, it is a beach not specifically equipped for tourism. There are no bars, no beach bars, no lifeguards, no showers, or anything like that. It's a 'virgin' beach in that sense with just a couple of small parking access points.

Fantastic experience: Playa muy bonita en la costa da morte con paisajes muy bonitos y con un chiringuito de playa en una de las entradas (en el no se permite pago con tarjeta). Playa muy recomendable de visitar.

Fantastic experience: La playa de Rostro es realmente una playa virgen que no tiene ninguna edificación, ningún chiringuito, ni hamacas, ni sombrillas y no hay nadie, excepto aquellos que pieden venir con una mochila y unas buenas botas, para caminar, porque está en una parte donde hay que atravesar un bosque. Como se ven las fotos es una playa inmensa de arena blanca, con un mar azulado y algo frío porque estamos en Galicia. Aún así yo me bañé y fue una experiencia única, porque bañarse en una playa totalmente solo es algo casi mistico. El agua estaba bastante fría porque es mayo y puede ser que hubiera unos diez grados o algo así, no obstante la experiencia, insisto es maravillosa merece la pena ir allí y disfrutar de la soledad de la playa y de la compañía del mar, de la naturaleza y del agua aunque solo sea caminando de arriba abajo la playa. No recuerdo ninguna otra playa tan virgen y tan auténtica, tal vez la playa de la Flecha de Huelva se le parezca, pero ya tiene un chiringuito oficial, o tal vez alguna otra. Lo cierto es que esta reúne las dos vertientes de la playa y el mar juntos que permite un disfrute inigualable una experiencia única y una satisfacción sorprendente. Os aconsejo que vayáis si teneis pensado comer por alli, al restaurante Valentín, del que haré una reseña aparte, que está a algunos kilómetros y es el típico restaurante gallego donde va a comer toda la gente que trabaja por allí o que vive por allí con precios más que adecuados y una calidad inmensa. No os perdáis este paraíso.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with very few people in the middle of August. Perhaps swimming can be dangerous with high tide, but when it's low there are many meters with very little depth to swim peacefully and wonderfully clean water.
