Playa El Oso

Playa El Oso is a sandy beach on the Asturian coast, stretching along a short section of shoreline and surrounded by natural vegetation. The waters feature strong wave action and the coastline presents a rugged, unspoiled backdrop.

The beach is part of the protected coastal landscape Costa Oriental, which has been preserved through centuries of minimal human activity. This isolation allowed the coast to retain its natural character over time.

This beach lies within a designated bird sanctuary, reflecting the local importance placed on coastal protection. You can observe rare bird species here, especially during migration seasons.

You can reach the beach via a steep trail from Pimiango or walk from La Franca during low tide. The terrain is challenging, so wear sturdy footwear and allow extra time for your visit.

The water is influenced by persistent strong winds that create powerful wave conditions. These conditions make it a place sought by experienced swimmers who want both solitude and physical challenge.
