Arenal de Sonabia, Sandy beach in Liendo, Spain
The Arenal de Sonabia stretches along the Cantabrian coast with fine golden sand bordered by high limestone cliffs and natural rock formations.
The beach has maintained its original coastal configuration since ancient times, serving as a natural harbor for local fishing boats during the maritime trade era.
Local residents gather at this beach throughout summer months for traditional festivities and community celebrations that connect generations of families.
Visitors can access the beach through a marked path from the free parking area, located near the church in the village of Sonabia.
The cliffs surrounding the beach provide nesting grounds for griffon vultures, which frequently soar above the shoreline in search of food.
