Espasa Beach

Highlight • Beach

La Playa de La Espasa is an extensive golden sandy beach over a kilometer long, located in eastern Asturias, between the municipalities of Caravia and Colunga. It is an open and windy beach, ideal for families with children due to its services, but also very popular for surfing.

Key Information for Your Visit:

Location: Mouth of the Espasa River, in the Principality of Asturias.

Services: Lifeguards, showers, ample parking (paid in summer for about €4) and a playground.

Environment: It has a pleasant park, recreational area, and several beach bars and restaurants for dining.

Practical Tips:

Tides: As the tide rises, the sandy area is considerably reduced. At low tide, it is connected to the neighboring Playa de La Isla.

Currents: Although it has designated swimming areas, be careful if you go too far from the shore, as there are often strong currents.

Surfing: It is one of the major references for Asturian longboarding and often hosts sporting events.

Ribadesella Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

Ribadesella is one of those Asturian villages that steal your heart. The Sella River divides it in two and on each side there is something to see: the port, the old town, the houses of the indianos and a breathtaking beach. Just below the cliffs is the Tito Bustillo cave, with cave paintings declared a World Heritage Site.

Mirador del Fito

Highlight • Viewpoint

On one of the most famous hills of the Sierra del Sueve, stands an old concrete watchtower from the early 20th century: the mirador del Fito. From here we can take a continuous, almost unblinking shot that immediately reveals the basic elements of the Asturian landscape: sea, mid-mountains, high mountains, meadows, valleys, fog, towns.
