Getting there & safety
Access
Short path. Parking available near the Villa Pesquera and along nearby streets. Usually sufficient space since this is a local town beach rather than a major tourist draw. Free.

Northwest coast Atlantic waves can be strong, especially in winter. No lifeguard. Swim near the shore and avoid deep water during high-surf periods. The sandy bottom drops off in places. Stay away from the fishing boat area.
